The color is killer!!! Everyone that sees it compliments it, it even stands out in our showroom full of top quality classics. #'s matching engine and trans! We just acquired the car from the gentleman we sold it to 13 years ago. This knockout has been lovingly cared for and is as good or even better than when we first sold it to him. In addition to killer looks, a 350 V8, 4 speed manual, T-tops, and removable rear window make for an exciting ride!

EXTERIOR: The color is "oh my God" amazing! I can't say enough good things about it. The body lines are excellent, everything fits square and flush. The pop-up headlights and wiper door are working properly, the removable T-tops store behind the seat. It's the last year for the chrome bumpers and up front the chrome is original. The grilles fit really nice and it still has the weather shields behind the grilles protecting the headlights. In back the chrome, license plate surround and taillights look fresh. This is also the last year the rear window pops out. The weatherstrips were replaced. It's sitting on brand new BFG tires wrapped around 15x8 rally wheels with polished trim.

INTERIOR: It's really spic and span clean inside! The upholstery and cushions are in excellent shape, even the seatbelts look fresh. The door panels, dash area, moldings all look great. The console is clean and has the correct 4-speed shifter. A retro stereo fits in the factory hole and a sound bar is neatly mounted in back. The steering wheel is on a tilt/telescopic column. The carpet is also excellent from front to back, it has a set of embroidered mats too. It's complete with T-top bags and the jack is in its compartment.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It has its original VIN number matching 350 motor. It is upgraded with an aluminum intake, Edelbrock carb and Flamethrower ignition. It's dressed up with some aluminum finned valve covers. The entire engine compartment is clean and proper, all of the components look to be in real nice shape. The vacuum lines look like they've been replaced and are run neatly. It also has an upgraded aluminum radiator.

UNDERSIDE: This car has front and rear independent suspension that was completely rebuilt at the time of restoration. In back it has upgraded strut bars and fiberglass spring. The brake system was also rebuilt and has disc brakes at all four wheels, the e-brake assembly is also hooked up. It has a great sounding optional high performance chambered exhaust system that exits through the valance with factory square tips. Looking up at the motor it's clean and stock. It still retains the original VIN number matching M20 Muncie 4-speed transmission. The drive shaft was rebuilt and connects back to it's original rear end with 3.36 posi gears. The frame is solid, floors are clean and the spare tire carrier is in place.

SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square ft service center, and hired a team of technicians to work it. This is so we can sell you the best cars within reason.

This is a really fun car! Whether you just park in your garage and look at it or pop the T-tops and rear window then go for a cruise, it is guaranteed to put a smile on your face!

However, opinions can vary, and I strongly recommend a personal inspection to form your own view. Our sales team is always available to answer any questions you may have. One great option is to request a personalized walk-around video, where we can showcase the car and share our team's insights. **Our cars are displayed within a museum setting.
