Right?
But I think she's got a refinish job, hard to think it's been like that since the '63.

That one would scream..beware to me.
Headstock/neck too much wear, but the clean around the decal while 100% intact and a 24' neck - that's a Mustang neck that was repurposed to its higher $$ brother I'm willing to bet.
Also, should have an L serial neck plate, and obvious refin. Likely replacement chrome as well - WAY too shiny versus neck PU and dot discoloration.

But did you see the purple?
And you're right, chrome and paint job way too shiny compared to pickup covers and fretboard.

The purple distracted me, but I cannot be distracted from 'something is off' - but $200 for the body, sure.
PURPLE!

Purple mic, even if it doesn't look just like a Telefunken U47!

Yeah, that thing's great & didn't last long.
Also, I wish I liked Strats and had a spare $2,700:

If it was purple lucite, I might just pull out the purple credit card (Yes I have one) to pay for it.

I was just about to post that Aluminati. Why is it four grand? It's recycled bottles and cans.
