Gas Tank is Not rusted, inside tank needs minor cleaning, orig spare has never been out.
ENGINE/TRANS we put it in 4th gear & slightly rocked it making sure eng is Not locked, (We did (Not) try to turn eng over with starter) cylinders would need to be lubed first, Engine Its Untouched since it was parked in 76 air cleaner has always been on engine, Inside carb/intake, air cleaner is clean throttle plates are not stuck, carb looks very good is orig has never been kitted.
ORIGINAL, ITS EASIER to say whats not original on the car, The tires are not orig, the battery is not, the air filter is not, The owner installed glass packs in 1968 they are made for the car bolted on not welded, wiper blades are not, MISSING parts (2) rad cap &1 chrome trim that surrounds exhaust coming out of lower valance, Everything else is original, plugs& wires, you can still see GM logo on fan belts, shocks, #4150 Holley, Every nut, bol, scre, clamp, shield Is Original orig keys with punch out codes, all interior, all glass is good

THE LAST ONE maybe not but you will probably not see another untouched/original midyear that's been sitting in garage 40 years come up for auction, There cant be many if any left out there.
this car will go up in value more than A restored one, you can restore it anytime, There only original once, if it was offered again in 5-10-15 years (In this condition) It would probably be The last one in Original untouched condition, That makes it rarer than A restored car
