You be the judge is this a #2 condition.

80 = FINE A Completely operable vehicle that is possibly an older restoration or an original car that shows minimal wear. This rating would be considered “show” quality.

•Category 2 would be a 80 - 89 point car .
 You be the judge is this a #2 condition.

Question would you offer for sale as a #2 condition a car with a rusty heater,no clutch pedal return spring and that front grill?

I offer this in reference to the advise given a new member to go to the bulletin for reasonable prices by knowledgeable members.

Of course when you consider what "number 2" means in some contexts (ala George Carlin's routine) that may indicate the descrepancy.

I hope the person who buys the car (if someone buys it) joins the club and finds out the truth about "Condition #2".  Will make for an interesting lawsuit against the seller.
