Vehicle Detail
This is a fantastic example of a true survivor car. I purchased this car a few weeks ago from it's original owner. It spent the first few years of it's life garaged in Petaluma, California, then they moved to Stevinson, California where it has been garaged and driven very little until now. The interior is amazingly clean and it still has the original factory installed 8-track radio. I lowered the car slightly by removing the coil springs, cutting a coil off with the cutoff saw and reinstalling them. I installed new chrome Boss 338 staggered wheels with new tires and replaced the factory mufflers with new glass packs. Other then those modifications, the car is stock and runs and drives like a new car. The engine is the factory 315hp 455 ci V8. It has a small exhaust leak coming from the right manifold, maybe a doughnut or gasket. Also, it needs a heater core. The AC system worked when it was parked a few years ago but needs to be charged now and I do not have the freon to charge an R12 system. The interior is a 9.5 out of 10 and the factory paint is a 7 in my opinion. It is very solid and rust free and I showed the car at a local show the other day but the paint is not perfect. It has a small golf ball sized dent on the top of the right fender next to the hood but that's the only dent I can find. Glass, chrome and rubber are very nice and the pictures don't lie. I have sold classic cars and hot rods world wide and my feedback speaks for itself. Ask questions if you have them and I can email pictures of specific areas if you would like.
