Thats a good looking Montego I go back and forth on painting mine. That color is definitely growing on me. Congrats on a good find.

Is that still the original paint? Has to be the first montego 7 I've seen without faded/peeling paint or clear. Nice find!

Very nice car and for what they found that needs fixed it's not too big of a deal. I've had friends in Washington pick up much worse for what you paid.
