Vehicle Detail

Serious bidders only! The reason this car is listed for a second time is the first winning bidder didnt have the money but bid anyway, please dont bid without intent to buy! The car you are bidding on is one of very few left although im not sure of the exact number produced, I have yet to find one quite like this. Im not sure the year it was rebuilt but i believe it was in the early 90's. The factory 400 big block and a 4 speed m-22 (rock crusher) transmission are still in the car. The rearend is a 12 bolt posi-traction with ether 3.73 or 4.11 gears, also original. It came with power steering and has very low miles on the rebuilt engine. It is very powerful and fun to drive on weekends. This car has had work done to it including complete transmission rebuild, engine rebuild, electronic fule pump, drive shaft saddles, aluminum u-joints, upgraded suspension, trans. splatter shield, line lock on front tires, B&M shift kit, and a 150 shot of nitrous with a 20lb NOS bottle, aswell as an MSD electronic ignition with changeable rev limiters chips. All the work has been done by a local machine shop. The interior is all factory original and in excellent shape aside from a small tear in the headliner.The C/D player in the center counsel is one of a few updates the car has from its glory days. This car is very nice through and through but needs to be gone through and a few updates could be made. It has shaved door handles and i dont like that but its preference. As of right now this car is a great driver and could use some cosmetics. It has a pilot bearing that needs to be replaced and it could be a daily driver. I had the car looked at for rust and body issues prior to buying it and it is in excellent shape. The only rust on the car is where the vynle top has started to peel up on the passenger side (2 pictures) and it is very minor but will need a new vynle top. The frame is in great shape with no damage to speak of. The car has been sitting in my heated shop for 2 years and started regularly. As far as i know i am the 3rd owner. I purchased the car 2 years ago from a local guy who was in financial trouble and was not happy to sell it. Apon the purchase I recieved the machine shop paper work and receipts witch i unfortunately no longer have, but i did find out it was built by the previous owner whom owned the local machine shop. I do have names, for anyone who is interested in a more thorough background on this car. I believe this is an original Montana car witch has been garaged and covered most of its life. I purchased the car in hopes of rebuilding it and making a show car but recent events have left me without a truck and with winter approaching something had to go. It is truly a nice care and i will hate to see it go. please contact me with any questions. Payment is to be paid via paypal unless otherwise worked out through me. Purchaser is to pay any shipping fees.
