Vehicle Detail

This car was purchased from the original owner in 1980. 50k mileage is the original low mileage. Car is strong and drives tight. 6.6 litre (400) and has the TH400 transmission. It has a slight shift kit that will chirp the tires between gears if you accelerate quickly but under normal driving is not jerky at all. Posi rear end and geared for low end torque, which makes it fun to drive. All bushings on front-end were replaced; stabilizer pins, upper and lower control arms, both sides, all front end parts; tie rods, ball joints, shocks are all new and alignment done. The rear engine crank seal was replaced this year and is dry to date. New carb and intake give great performance. I have originals on a shelf and they come with the car. I have the bird for the hood although it is not installed. Tires are almost new. Wheels were put on by the dealership at time of purchase. The wheels on the car are the 1979 15 year anniversary wheels that the original owner had installed at time of purchase. Adjustable rear air shocks are only 2 years old. The AC needs charging. All pollution control has been removed so straight dual exhaust. It is not a T-top car. The headliner was professionally redone. This car has a loud clear stereo that I can't even turn up all the way. There is an amplifier in the trunk and two rear tri-axle speakers that are amazing. The stereo is older and the CD player uses cartridges that hold the CD. The receiver is great. This car starts every time, first time. It is a great driver. It stops on a dime, brakes are all new, replaced wheel cylinders in rear two years ago. The hood paint is like glass. I had it repainted so if I added the bird to the hood it would look awesome. This car did not come from factory with a hood bird. I bought the bird with the decal kit so it matches the lettering and numbers. It is a fun car to drive and always get looks and great comments.
