If you have ever had the urge to buy a true classic, collectible car that you need not spend a fortune to buy it or keep it maintained then this is the car for you. Absolutely the best driving muscle car I have ever driven. I have owned approximately 1,000 cars that I would consider muscle cars. This car is as original as it gets. Numbers matching engine, transmission and rear end with a 3.42 posi. Muncie M-21 with original shifter that was rebuilt in California prior to my ownership. Engine has had a cam change and an aluminum intake and MSD ignition added. The engine has a nice lope through the flowmasters. I have the original intake, distributor and valve covers. This just gives it a little more pep but retains its originality. Alternator is original and A/C is still on R-12 and works great. Still has the original shifter and also the original standard-shift radiator. Car never goes over 210 in the heat with the A/C on. Speedometer shows 58,676 miles but I cannot verify this. All indicators are that this is correct. All original interior is in excellent condition. Dash pad has a small crack near the speaker. I have a cap on the dash at this time. I have the build sheet for this vehicle and it matches up rather nicely. It shows windshield antenna which is rare. It has the original HR-70-15 spare in the trunk. Has an aftermarket AM FM in the glove box and the original 8 track still on the dash. Key buzzer still functions as does the shift lock from the transmission to the steering column. It must be in reverse to get the key out of it. Drives absolutely straight with no shakes or pull. A pleasure to own and drive. All of the gauges work perfectly. Currently has 17” American Racing Hopster wheels on it - which are not my taste but look great and run smoothly. The tires have approximately 1,600 miles on them. 2 ½ “ true dual exhaust with flowmasters and it sounds great. Clutch does not chatter nor slip, it engages perfectly and pulls great. I had it painted 6 years ago and it has held up great. Paint looks deep and glossy. I also had a new vinyl top put on at the same time with the original material of course. Rea end is quiet and grabs perfectly. Absolutely no issues – get in it and drive. The original exhaust manifolds and smog are still in place so there are no headers to leak. Has matching number carburetor on the aluminum intake. Engine starts great and idles at 800 RPM and lopes great. It has great muscle car sound. I think I covered it all, but look at the pictures and if you have a question that I did not cover, give me a call. 806-236-5911C or 806-373-9736W. The only reason for selling is the purchase of a house. Please do not be a bogus bidder – man-up! If you meet the BIN, then I expect you to complete the auction. The car itself will sell on its own merit. I will help on this end to deliver it to the shipper of your choice. Title is clear and in my name. Payment of cash or cashier’s check prior to pick up. Vehicle will be released after all funds are cleared and in my hand. No warranty – I think it expired a few years ago. Check my feedback – good luck and God bless. May take swp for half if that helps? Barney
