They definitely WS6 wheels.
The sunburst was more gold, than brown.
The bird on the hood looks to be in good shape

I hope it is a true 40 mile car. If it is, stop driving it.
But what I meant earlier is that the mechanical odometers only went to 99,999 miles and then rolled over to 000000. No tampering involved.

I had an 81 Midnight Blue and Buckskin interior. Wish I'd never sold it.

I'm 100% it's truly a 46 mile car and not 100,046. It has some issues on the interior like some trim pieces are gone, but like I said 99% of the car is there just some random pieces. If I can snap a pic of the underside you will definitely believe the 46 miles.

File for a lost title and be done with it... If it's really 46 miles spend the money and fix it right..

The car looks great for the age.

Agree- do more research- check title history etc...

If it is a true 40 mile car then the right person and offer will be waiting.

Don't mess up any originality by cleaning
