CA is a "year of first registration" state, so the discussion of Year of Title vs model year is not really applicable.
But, a seller is perceived as mis-leading if they put a year in the ad that does not match the title when the buyer arrives and takes a look.
(particularly if it is salvage titled, but also critical as cars titled as 76 require bi-annual smog checks, while those titled as 75 do not, regardless of model year)

Funny how they were careful to blur out the lic plate to ward off the worry that those who had the resources could show up un-announced, but it is in a warehouse (doubtful the address on the title) and they missed one picture.

Those "kidney bean / 5 slot" rims were dealer offered upgrades at the time, although they have been nicely re-polished.
They were more common on Z's of the era, with zero offset, which these don't appear to be based on them still fitting correctly on a "leaf spring sagging" rear end.

Refurbished, but dash has cracks already, so that puts it back in "driver" category ( but aren't they all?? ), so flop a carpet dash cover on there and enjoy the drive.

Raining today in CA, so I like the hardtop option.... And it looks well cared for too.
