red. It has a very smooth, glossy finish. I'm very impressed with

polished. It has the optional rocker trim. The bumpers, grills, all
the medallions, hood ornament, tail lights look like they're new.

Pulling into a car show what do you think's going to draw more
attention: a Camaro, a Mustang or this car? It costs less than most
the Camaros we are selling but it looks like it should be three
times as much. Only 300 miles since the restoration was
finished.
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure
your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do
a walk around video that explains the car's condition in
detail.
**These cars are displayed in a museum. If interested in a
particular car make an appointment with a salesman to see that car.

showroom. If you buy a car, your admission will be refunded and you
