Last of the big American coupes (and this is pretty much the biggest at 233" long, 5033lbs, and the 460 cu in (7.5L) 4 barrel V8 option). Rides like a dream. Never winter driven. Clean floors, frame, body etc. Recent tires, brakes (front factory discs), stainless exhaust, suspension service etc. Will easily pass safety. Car was painted black (over orig blue) 14yrs ago, but the (less than perfect) finish is "showing its age".Interior, trunk etc are like new. Engine is clean with most factory stickers intact. All original Chrome, hubcaps etc. in place. Power antenna, seats, etc all work, as does heater, electrical, vacuum operated light covers, etc. Original am/fm stereo turns on, but may need service as its staticy. One small bumper overrider rubber trim is off, but easily available. Includes many original 1977 Documents, some service history, owners manual, etc. This car could easily be brought to show condition, driven as it is or converted to a rat rod or custom. The car is factory A/C equipped, and complete, but I haven't properly test due to current temperatures. Controls and fan are fully functional and vacuum operated switches, lights etc have been serviced and are are working properly.The car has all smog equipment intact, but egr bellow has a slight leak. Catalytic converters are also still in place. Original muffler was removed and replaced with a free flowing muffler during exhaust replacement, but is also included and in good shape.Vinyl padded roof was removed for previous paint, and roof painted to match the body. Car is running and can be driven (it was driven Christmas Day with antlers attached to deliver gifts - see added pics)It is 67899 miles - appears to be original based on documentationApprox. 2000 miles since major service by original owner's wife (brakes, transmission, gaskets, ignition, cooling etc)New tires 500 miles agoCar was apparently never smoked in.Headliner, dash, door panels etc are in excellent condition. Car starts in cold weather but occasionally choke sticks open (worked fine today)Rear bumper over rider strip is available on Ebay for $15/pair.Floors frame etc, are solid with most original 1977 rustproofing and sealant still in place. Only light surface rust on exposed areas as expected. Only area I can find anything of concern is the typical inner rear bumper where moisture sits - shown in added picture. Hood appears good under original factory soundproofing material. VIN is 7Y81A905892
