I don't know that a potential connection to the original owner increases the value of the car, but some owners like to have that information. Regardless of his literacy level, this seller recognizes that.

Aside from the upholstery 'upgrade' (sorry - not a fan of morphing leather/vinyl into yechh cloth), I'd say the seller's trying his best to be creative.

Now - if you wanna see some award winning 'CreggsLust' ad writing, check this one out:

350/350? I believe the 350 HP L46 was last seen in 1970. This car should've had an L82 on L48.

Maybe he'll sell some snake oil to revive that custom interior. Might help the wet-cell battery sitting on the pass side floor. Those are always good on carpet.
