Pictures just taken. We bought this car as a project car, and my son is selling as he is of to college. We have the front and side skirts, and several interior parts, but the real gem is that the body is in good condition, needing a paint job, the T-Tops are intact, and we have it running great with a new crate engine which still has approximately 18 months and a 100,000 mile warranty (bought through Chevrolet, so the warranty is good nationwide at any GM Good-Wrench Service Location). We've driven it 2,042 since the engine was replaced. The car, when we bought it, had 160,000 miles on it -- the 2,042 is the current mileage on the engine and transmission.Here is the work we completed, or had done:Chevy 350 Crate Engine (professionally installed) this is a 295 Hp Crate Engine, more than the original 175HP.Rebuilt Transmission (professionally rebuilt and installed)All new wiring harness (professionally installed)Brand new Digital Dashboard from Dakota Digital (professionally installed)New Front RotorsNew Brake Master Cylinder (professionally installed)New front and rear brakesAll new tires (professionally installed)New carburetor (professionally installed)New alternator (professionally installed)New power steering pump (professionally installed)New starter (professionally installed)Dual headers - ceramic (professionally installed)Dual 4 inch exhaust (professionally installed)All new front end suspension parts replaced with new partsNew rear shocksAll new belts, hoses and wires (professionally installed)New radio and speakers (professionally installed)Retractable antenna (professionally installed)New T-Top molding (professionally installed)T-Tops are intactWe have a rear deck cover for the back dash (not installed) and a trunk mat (not installed)Replaced seat belts from Alaskan used car parts dealer (the internet is a great place to search!) Your job is to redo the interior and paint the car!!! This is a very fun vehicle, and will be a great buy for anyone looking to own a piece of American history -- rather than the new Camaro, which is not as fun of a vehicle...
