INTRODUCTION: The last real muscle car! Time capsule survivor!
Amazing factory colors plus it's the high performance W-72 400 with
a four-speed manual trans. Highly documented with the original
window sticker and 2 build sheets plus lots more. The original
owner took amazing care of this car until 2005. Only 68,600
original miles. You are going to be blown away by its great overall
condition and fantastic ride quality!
EXTERIOR: Mostly original paint! The correct Mayan Red color still
sparkles under our showroom lights. All the panels are nicely
aligned flush and square with good consistent caps that are spot
on. It's satisfying looking down the side of the nice straight
body. The long heavy doors do not sag when opened and close easily
with minimal effort. The rear spoiler and Shaker scoop really
enhance the overall profile. The wheel well flares and side scoops
not only look tough but are functional too. It does the original
and optional screaming chicken on the hood. All the glass is nice
and clear. The molded fiberglass front fascia is not warped or
cracked. It's rolling on a very correct and attractive set of 15x8
silver snowflake wheels wrapped in beefy Cooper Cobra Radial G/T
tires. And the best part is it doesn't have any pesky t-tops to
mess with, which is my personal preference because then they will
never leak.
INTERIOR: Factory Oyster interior! This color combination is just
over the top gorgeous. I love all the red accents, everything
compliments each other so nicely. The seats have their original
upholstery plus are still supportive and comfortable. The door
panels are also original showing minimal wear consistent with its
mileage. The driver side also has a remote mirror toggle. The dash
pad does not have any cracks and the machine turned gauge bezel is
one of my favorites ever. It has an array of gauges including a
tachometer, functioning clock, and odometer showing 68,600 original
miles currently. The rear defroster is a very nice option to have
and the Clarion AM/FM stereo with cassette was installed a very
long time ago. The Hurst 4-speed manual shifter proudly sits atop
the spotless center console. It's equipped with a tilt column and
the original style steering wheel that's in great condition. The
dome light works and the back seat looks like it was never sat in.
The carpeting is also original and in great condition with nice GM
branded rubber floor mats too.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Strong running! The original 400 cubic inch 6.6
liter W72 engine is still in place, and you're going to be
impressed with its performance. She spins like a top and appears to
be very original. The Shaker scoop is the cherry on top of the
functioning cold air induction system. It is equipped with power
steering and power brakes also. The original cowl tag is still in
place. The squirters and horns are hooked up plus the battery is
properly secured. Some of the hoses and belts have been replaced as
needed. The underside of the hood, fenderwells, and firewall all
have their original satin black paint.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The underside of the trunk lid and inside the
jamb both have original looking Mayan Red paint that is in great
shape and still has the jack stickers too. I believe the weather
strip was replaced at some point. The inside is nicely carpeted and
it's complete with a full jack assembly, space saver spare tire,
and original inflation canister. Under the carpet is nice clean
metal with original looking satin black paint. The trunk light is
working also.
UNDERSIDE: Original and well preserved! There is no rust under this
car, you can look anywhere. The floors are dry as a chalkboard and
it still has the original undercoating from new. It was maintained
as needed and has some new bushings in the front end etc. Upgraded
handling package with front and rear sway bars and a quick ratio
power steering gearbox. Nicely upgraded exhaust system that
includes headers, flowmaster mufflers, and the correct splitter
tips that sounds totally amazing. And the WS6 package includes four
wheel power disc brakes plus many other enhancements. Looking up at
the engine everything is nice and clean. It has the original Borg
Warner close ratio 4-speed manual transmission. Power gets put to
the pavement via the original 10 bolt Safe-T-Track (posi) rear end
with 3.23 gearing.
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 service the essentials on every car
we sell.
CONCLUSION: They are only original once! And this one's as good as
they come. With all the great factory options plus all the
documentation to confirm its impeccable history, this is the car to
buy. An investment quality vehicle that is not going to drain the
401K, and the best part is, you can still have a ton of fun driving
it!
For nearly 30 years, I, Jay Grams, have personally written the
highlights for almost every car in our collection. What I provide
is my professional opinion based on my experience with these
vehicles. 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. If you are interested in a specific
vehicle, please schedule an appointment with a salesperson to view
it. Without an appointment, there is an admission fee to enter the
showroom. If you decide to purchase a car, your admission will be
refunded, and you'll receive a one-year museum membership.
