There was a small crack in the roll bar area, but not seen when top is in place and does not affect the functionality of the vehicle. I know Aristocraft was not the most sought after brand in the 80's, but it is very hard to find one so nearly complete and clean. I have seen the decals for sale on EBAY, as well as the wing. I still see that there are gears, shocks, other suspension parts, and misc items still on EBAY, NIB.
