Mileage: 87,884
Engine: V8 Rocket 350ci
Originally bought from American Dream Machines, Des Moines, Iowa in 2011.
Restoration work completed since 2014:
Installation of new front disc brakes with brake booster, installation of new tires and 15 inch wheels (Rally 69’s) painted to match body and fit brakes, new performance front and rear sway bars, new front driver side seat to replace seat that was worn, new vintage tyle radio head unit, Bluetooth capability, new Pioneer front and center speakers, installation of 4 barrel carburetor and OEM style air cleaner, install of new headers, intake manifold gasket, new duel exhaust with a cross over, new exhaust tubes, mufflers, exhaust flanges, new battery and new mini starter. New rear wiring harness and light in the rear end.
Paint: completely stripped old paint/clear off the car, prime the car, block sanded and painted the 442 striped to get closet to actual build. All paint work and engine work completed by Full Throttle Restoration in Orange County in 2014-2015.
White convertible top is in very good condition and window is clear. There is a small spot driver side that is starting wear a little thin but does not leak. The black rubber boot is about 4 years old.
This car runs very strong, very stable, stops well, very reliable (she will crank up every time for you) and beautiful. I have only put approx. 3,000 miles over my time of ownership. It is always covered in the garage and gets taken around the block about once a month.
It has a few minor things that I would work on if I had the time and money (AC, the ignition switch spins a little) and replace the current three speed with Muncie Rockcrusher 4 speed). Hate to sell but kids are older and need money for their first car. Clean title
