Vehicle Detail

I placed a LOW RESERVE on this sale: The car is originally from South Carolina, no salt or snow there. I replaced the typical floor pans, fender well patches (both sides), there was never any real rust issues from the start of the restoration. The cal was perfect (so often the rust starts there and eats into the fire wall). It is an original big block car. I had built it for the track, max wedge, intake, 11 to 1, 440 and all the other go-fast electronics, widened spring hangers, max wedge exhaust and all that. I was going to race the car but my wife contracted MS and I never got to the track. I streeted it but the engine slipped a bearing two years ago and my dream was shattered. I recently decided to put it back on the road, with the 383, 590 Mopar purple cam, Holly 650 CFM, hydraulic lifters, it's such a fun car to drive and all on pump gas. No hassle anymore, with the high compression engine, mixing expensive fuels, and big tires. It has always been trailered to any event over 15 miles from my home. I kept the original OEM max wedge exhaust system on it with 3" pipe throughout with cut-outs. I had to keep that on the car, it adds character and looks! I do have photos of the body work in progress for serious buyers only. The original restoration is about 8 OR 9 years old and off the road for two years, never saw rain and garage kept with cover on during storage. I am moving my wife and myself to a retirement community and they DO NOT have room for my second wife (the red Fury). Ask questions if you like............. The car is for sale locally and reserve the right to end the auction early if it is sold.ENGINE SPECS: 383 Big Block - Fresh Rebuild, .030 over, closed chamber heads, Mopar orange box with electronic distributer, Holly 650 CFM with vacuum secondary jets, Holly intake, Mopar purple cam (590 lift) and hydraulic lifters, Mallory blaster coil.
