·Super cool push button code and start/stop system - no ignition key.

·Always garaged - perhaps seen rain 3 times total.

·Included in sale: 4 original 15" rally wheels with trim rings (no center caps)


A near perfect car with a few areas that could be improved:

·Engine and transmission are not perfectly sealed - small leaks from each.

·Typically of many small block Chevy's - a bit of piston slap noise at cold idle.

·No jack, no spare, no parking brake system.

Driving experience:

·This car both takes you back all while enjoying the many upgrades.

·A real head turner - expect attention!

·Look, sound, smell (yes - carb SBC engine runs rich) all great sensory inputs

·Feel is very unlike a 1975 car. The suspension, tire/wheel, and alignment give a very precise handling experience - steering inputs are immediate and responsive. This actually takes some getting used to if you are expecting a 44 year old driving experience.

Why am I selling:

·This was a fun project and fun to drive but time to "thin the herd" and move on to the next "thing." I'll be looking for a weekend trip car with equal cool-ness but more creature comfort for road trips.
