First, it is probably that dealer who repainted it.
Second, you have no idea what the buyer will do to it. If it sells.

Its pretty. And that is about all that can be said about it.
*I* could paint one up and make it look pretty. Doesn't mean it is worth anything though.

I figure if someone knows that little about the vehicle, and claims it is "restored" then it probably isn't and probably isn't more than a cosmetic paint job.

Used to be a guy on ebay who ran a "classic car" dealership where they "restored" the cars and sold them. His pictures showed runs in the paint, rust bubbles, etc and he still insisted there was nothing wrong and that they were flawless show pieces and worth every dime he was asking. This looks like a slightly better, but still questionable, operation.
