The builder of this beast told the previous owner the engine is a
real #512 block 427 built "with the best of everything". He also
said it was built to run on pump gas. The engine has an Aluminum
Winters Intake, Holley 780 carb, and chambered exhaust that sounds
incredible. The Transmission is a Muncie M-21 close ratio 4spd,
12-bolt posi rear end with 4.10 gears. It was a complete frame-off
restoration in approximately 2006 by Larry Willette. The car
changed hands a couple of times but remained in Florida until it
was bought in 2012 by the Branson Auto & Farm Museum where it was
on display until the last owner bought it in 2021. All new rubber
weather strip, new glass front and back, original glass on the
sides. New GM hose kit with Factory-looking clamps. Factory-looking
