Saturday, November 2nd, we will have cars, trucks, trailsome background on the car The car was purchased by my in-laws in May or 1992. It was in need or repair and much TLC so my father in-law purchased it with the intention of restoring it with the appropriate parts that were consistent with the timing of production which was Dec of 1964. He did all of the work by himself at home. He replaced the existing incorrect engine with the current small block 327 that the car was originally manufactured with. He also sought out various other incorrect parts on the car and replaced them as needed to get the car in worthy condition. My in-laws gave my wife and I the car in 2014 and we sent it right from south west Minnesota to Vinnie's Muscle Cars of Texas for a total check up, repair and makeover job. Vinnie worked on getting the car show worthy including restoring it's paint color to the original Glen Green that it is today. The car has been garaged and covered since 1992 and likely before. For the last 10 years, the car has had less than 500 miles put on it. While my father in law had it, they took a few trips to the Black Hills and drove it from time to time around rural Minnesota but kept relatively low miles on the car. The odometer correctly represents the mileage on the car from the original manufacture date. He did tons of research during his restoration and tried to make it as correct as possible. Given that the car was manufactured on 12/3/64, he used the castings and numbers for the parts that would have been available to the assembly line on that date. Vinnie can speak to the work he did to the car and the parts he used. He's the only guy that's worked on it since 2014. Previous known history prior to 1992. Prior to 1975, it was owned by a couple in Nebraska. They sold it to Diamond Auto Sales and it then changed hands 3 or 4 times in 1975 and finally sold in Sioux Falls, SD to a man from Bismark, ND. He held on to it until 1979, when he then sold it to the couple from Wisconsin that my In-Laws eventually bought it from through a dealer/auto sales shop. The previous owner intended on restoring the car with his son but tragically lost his son before it was complete and decided to sell it.
