This car is a real thrill to drive; handles better than new, plenty of horsepower, sounds and drives like a hotrod, excellent brakes, corners flat and cruses at and above hiway speeds with ease and stability. All modifications; body work, paint, interior, wheels, brakes, engine, transmission, and heater coil and weather seals: have been completed in the last 3000 miles. The windshield and windows were replaced early 1990s and this vehicle has been garaged ever since. I restored this cars body in the early 90s, to the present paint color, repaired and recoated this paint 2008. GM 502 Deluxe Engine; 502 hp & 567 foot pounds torque Holley 870 cfm Street Avenger Carburetor System MSD Pro-Billet HEI Distributor system GM Performance Parts: 4L85-E Transmission with Variable Programmable Locking Torque Converter w/ console mounted performance & standard as well as up & down shift button mode.

Extra stiff front suspension, extra heavy duty sway bar and springs. During hiway cruising: with 4 speeds, low ratio rear end; the torque converter locks up: 75 mph the engine purrs at 18-1900 rpm. I’ve owned this car since 1973, bought it from my brother, who bought it from the original owner in Miami in 1972. He moved back to Santa Fe NM in later 72 where I took over and the car, and it has been in NM, NV for 3 years and back to NM the rest of the time. It has been garaged and driven on special occasion for the last 30 years. Why am I selling: I am moving to the country where only trucks go! To be clear, the 502 motor, and 4L-85E transmission totaled $11,000.00, there's less than 1000 miles on this car since Motor, transmission, hydro boost brakes, a/c restoration & service, electric odometer to mechanical converter, upholstery and carpet replacement took place. I will through in the Computer, key board and monitor with updated software loaded in windows xp for program changes one can do to the transmission for this price. All documentation, invoices, parts lists etc. will also go with car. Over $20,000.00 in parts etc, don't let this one get by you!
