We purchased this car from a estate sale in Feb of 2006, It was part of a collection of a gentleman that had owned the car since 1995 holding it in his collection for 11 years ending with 28,505 original miles. It was kept inside a heated garage and only driven to car shows and/or a cruise in during the summer.Previous to that it was owned for 12 years by the Albany, Oregon police department, where they used it in undercover operations thanks to the forfeiture laws they were able to take it from the previous owner in 1983.

This vehicle is equipped with the standard (for SS 396 models) F41 suspension and it has all the correct suspension parts and pieces (frame brackets, disc brakes, etc..) that it should have. I have the original build sheet, it is very nice and this vehicle speaks for itself in that it is definitely an original SS car that has not be molested or abused. The mechanics are in excellent condition and it runs and drives excellent. All of the exterior lights, dash lights, radio, wipers, electric top and other electrical items work well. The body is perfect after spending over $40,000 on the body and paint restoration.
