    People are always trying to over-restore these cars. Just let it keep its natural patina. ;)

    Couple of other points with it:

    1) Black smoke coming out of the exhaust on idle (cant be good)
    2) Look at the rear wheel alignment
    3) Even rear window out for a new one would be huge $$.

    If this can be fixed for less than 50k I'd be amazed.

    I think my 550 rear window was 5k euro (needed a replacement as it broke when lifting for a respray).
