On most devices you can highlight the link and right click, then see your options...or just copy/paste link into your browser (you may have to add "www." As mentioned when I first listed, I was going to make a new video when the weather cooperated. The video link I had when I first listed it was a YouTube type video to show off the recent 2 year refurbishment. It wasn't geared towards showing details for a prospective buyer. Sorry about the camera shake and non-scripted commentary. I'm 99.99% sure the block/transmission and rear axle are numbers matching...hoping to crawl underneath soon to document.I do have photographs of the window VIN, door sticker, cowl VIN and radiator support VIN...the transmission # is hard to make out, but does end in 52 if you can tell. I'll try to take a better image. dropbox.com/sh/xrbyw2sxmbyt1nw/AAAdCxfZ_pvMLoqN6TYmQc_Qa?dl=0 I can't seem to get U/K body type removed from listing...it is not U/K WELL CARED FOR CAR...Hard to find this type of car that has not been abused. Very well documented as well. Is it a perfect show car? No...but this way you can drive it w/o always worrying about stone chips and such.It is also a perfect car to modify/make it a tribute car/etc. since it is not a "1 of none" ultra rare car.A well known muscle car insurer is valuing the car between $28K and $30K...can provide a PDF Day 2 car...as you can tell by the rear spoiler, rims, etc...nothing that can't be reversed to originalI am 2nd ownerSouth Texas car most of its life...sold in Wichita Falls, Texas originallyGarage kept 38 of its 44 yearsCar has 161,442 miles as of listing, but engine has only 14,500 miles since rebuild in 1992Transmission was rebuilt around 90K miles (904 auto w/Slap Stik)4 wheel manual drum brakesI have all receipts/might even be able to find 1st owner's receiptsI have both broadcast sheetsI have original owner's manual and "some" original sale paperwork...original buyer is also still aroundOriginal VIN plate on car/door sticker/window plateI have "2 volume" factory service manual in original wrapper (reprint...not original as in 44 years old)I have over 1,700 HiRez images detailing the recent 2 year refurbishmentNever abusedNo major accidents everTires are in really good shape / BF Goodrich / P205/70R14 front...P235/60R14 rearAmerican Racing wheelsReally nice aftermarket stereo system (see trunk pictures)Clifford alarmNever seen a salted winter road You are responsible for pick up, but I can help with any loading. If you are out of town, agents are welcome to inspect. I can also pick you up at airport. Car was originally a 318 Auto/2BBL1st owner was a military nurse who drove it mostly to work and back, I bought it from her in 1990 w/132,000 miles.I had the motor rebuilt in 1992 when it had 147K milesI had it repainted 1990 (1989 ZR1 Competition Yellow) Yes, a Chevy color on a Mopar...the horrors.Original color was some kind of lemon yellow...almost beige. It looked way too laid back for me. I can provide pictures if needed. 1992 engine rebuild:318 still, but became 6-pack induction...plus a lot more(If the 318 bothers you, keep in mind, small block 360 crate engines start at $3,500 and can drop in over a weekend)Edelbrock 6-pak intake3 Holley 2300 carbsBored 10 overJ-Heads (2.02 intake/1.60 exhaust)Hooker Super Comp. HeadersTurbo mufflersNew rings/gaskets/bearingsErson RV-10 cam...nice lope at idle...sounds meanHeavy duty timing chainHigh volume oil pumpNew water pumpNew steel crankNew freeze plugsNew lifters & springsNew Mallory Unilite ignitionNew fan clutch I drove it to work and car events for about 5 years, then got married and started a business. I drove the car only enough to keep the seals good and to burn off any moisture in the engine/oil...about 300-600 miles a year from 1995 thru 2011 Starting in 2011, I began the refurbishment. I have 2-3 pages of stuff I did, but here is a basic outline:New vinyl topNew seat upholstery in front/New foamNew carpetFloors/Trunk floor cleaned/coated with POR-15Engine cleaned/repaintedNew Vintage Air A/CBlackout treatment on back panel/New tail light lenses Replaced a lot of the wiringNew Fuel tank/straps/grommet/sending unit/filler capNew air cleanersNew valve coversWhite gauge decal kitPistol grip shifterCarbon fiber dash and console kit / new sun visors / new rear view mirror / new passenger mirrorAdded lots of interior LED lightingParking/brake/turn signal lights all LED now w/correct LED flasherDyed almost everything back to original color (door panels, kick panels, etc.)Areas not previously painted to match, now painted (door jambs, under hood, under rear deck, engine compartment, etc.) All new drums / back brakes totally replaced / rear brake line replaced / master cylinder replacedNew high quality/deep Transmission panReplaced distributor cap, rotor and pigtail wire. Replaced spark plug wires. Replaced spark plugs with NGK Iridium plugs. Replaced voltage regulator.

Dash has a "dash cover" that fools most people it's real. Wow, you're still reading?...here's some more misc. detail:Audio system is (3) 10" Orion Extreme woofers mounted in a box in the front cavity of the trunk powered by a limited edition Alpine amp. The mid-range 6x9's in the back and the dual voice coil single mid-range in the dash center is powered by a Clarion amp. Finally, there are 2 Orion Extreme tweeters in the dash top powered by another separate amp. There are active and passive cross-overs. All this starts with an Alpine AM/FM/Cassette/CD changer (CD changer in trunk).
