Black top and interior
It is a 1964 model which came with four horizontal headlights, in pairs. This car received a swap for a 1965 front clip, changed to pairs of vertical stacked headlights, likely sometime in the 1970s. The car’s last Minnesota tabs are dated 1976. It was hidden inside since about 1983 in the city of St. Paul, on the south side of the river.
Unknown is whether the engine and/or transmission are original. The engine does not run. There are both “three pedals” and an auto shifter installed. The existing transmission is an auto. The original motor would have been a 389ci V8 with a 10.75 to 1 compression. The installed V8 does not have a Tri-power set-up. The car does have electric windows. The car does roll, leans a little low on the right side, and the engine is likely stuck.
The overall condition of the car is poor after near 40 years of both cold and hot inside storage on a concrete floor without moving. There is little or no rodent damage but the interior is showing mold, the body and frame some rust, and the whole car is very dirty.
Apart from what might be the original owner’s manual there is no paperwork – meaning that nothing is known about the car - apart from a clean, transferable title.
