Vehicle Detail

Here we have a very hard to find 73' big block Gran Sport. All numbers match, 308 posi,455-4V. I've owned this car for about 5 years, have done a couple of things to improve it's looks like installing a rally steering wheel, had the wheels made out of a set ot 14 x 6 Buick road wheels. They are 15x8 and 15x10's with a custom backset to tuck 'em in the fenders.The car is all original down to the exhaust,and all parts taken off or replaced are still here in a box. Hoses, old spiral shocks ,steering wheel (cracked). Had all original papers, but some kids broke into shop and who knows why they took all papers to all the cars I have.I have some Sloan Museum doc's on the way, hope they can at least prove to prospective buyers that the car is genuine.I drive the car every time I get a chance (as long as the streets are dry). Which is about twice a month.I don't even give it a wet bath , it gets a damp wipedown. The car drives as new with the F-41 suspension you can throw it into corners and does not lean over with no squeaks or rattles.The interior has no damage to dash or panels, the only spot is some wear on the edge of the drivers seat.I did find some replacement quarter window trim and installed it.The stainless corners were still there.I have looked for and bought every Century Gran Sport I could find over the last 6-8 years and you do not find these for sale in this condition.I've found a couple of good parts cars to restore my '74 Stage 1 Sun Coupe. I'm in the middle of a frame off '69 Grand Prix, and the shop is a little crowded.So I've decided to let this one go. If you like what you see and want to talk about it, Call Jim @918-355-8774 and leave a message, I wiil call you back. have a pencil handy and the machine will give you a cell #.It will answer for a compressor service. Thanks for looking. Oh yeah I do have the original 14" steel wheels and pie pans that belong to this car. We can make a deal on the Road Wheels if you just gotta have 'em.
