correctly. It was sold new at Gates Chevrolet in South Bend Indiana
and comes with a build sheet and list of all the parts purchased.
It has belonged to the same owner and professional car builder for
the past 26 years so you know it was well cared for. It wasn't just
a project to flip and sell to the highest bidder. It was built for
long term ownership and drivability. Car came from the factory with
the Z15 SS package and is coated in Mohave Gold with Black stripes.

compartment has an immaculate clean original appearance that was
very well done. The block, heads and manifold are all Chevrolet
Orange with most other components painted Black. Reproduction
