Vehicle Detail
Performance 350 ci with small cam runs great. Flowmaster exhaust sounds mean. Amazing acceleration. Very fast. Top speed is north of 140mph. I also have the original 327 block - included free with sale of the car. New clutch and tuned up 4-speed transmission. Chromed instrument panel looks cool. Aftermarket cassette recorder but no damage to panel if want to replace with original. Paint looks great from 10' but there are some cracks and chips on fenders and doors. Original color was green. New convertible top. Needs to be fastened to frame better with longer staples - easy fix. Other minor issues include no actuator for windshield wipers, upholstery seam is spreading slightly on top of the passenger seat and micro switch on passenger door needs to be replaced or interior lights stay on. I believe this car was owned by Bud Smith in Santa Maria, California from mid 1970s to mid 1990s when he died. His widow had the car until sold to Jerald Summers in Paso Robles, California in 2003. I purchased the car from Jerald in 2004. Car lived with me in Santa Barbara from 2004 until 2009 when we moved to Thousand Oaks, California. I now have 2 children (1 and 3) and it's time to let this car go to a new owner. Purchaser is responsible for picking up the vehicle. Arrangements may be made with me for delivery within 100 miles of Thousand Oaks, California. Payment by cash or cashiers check. On Oct-26-12 at 10:18:01 PDT, seller added the following information:
