Beautiful car, runs well, and has undergone partial restoration. I currently use it as a weekend cruiser.

·1406 Performer Carburetor with Electric Choke (Edelbrock)

·2156 Performer Aluminum Intake (Edelbrock)

·350-2157 Camshaft with lifter kit (Edelbrock)

·4 barrel compatible air cleaner and valve covers (Edelbrock)

·Replaced fuel and water pump

·Replaced fuel filter

·Replaced hoses

·Replaced distributor with Summit Racing kit

·Replaced spark plugs and spark plug wires

·Replaced PCV

·Replaced front bumper chrome/have original

·$3000 in additional maintenance work on brakes and pedal adjustment

·Custom alumized exhaust installed by Elk Grove custom exhaust

Car was featured on “Wheelers and Dealers” web extra

Paint has some defects, but reviewed paint condition with a custom paint shop and the owner said the paint condition is too good in his opinion to repaint for a few years. Interior is in good condition.

I didn’t have time to complete everything, so there are minor issues like driver door latch is “sticky” to open, weather /rubber stripping is due for replacement, small oil leak when not tightened well enough, needs one of the seatbelts in back reconnected, car still has a 1980’s era radio which should be replaced with stock, etc. Have receipts for parts and much of the work done elsewhere.

To make highway ready I would have done additional mechanical and transmission work and possibly converted brakes to disc, but for a weekend cruiser or to take next step to high end driver/show it is well on the way.

Power convertible top works well. I have many of the original parts if you want including front chrome. Always garaged, waxed, premium gas and oil, and non-smoking.

All in all a beautiful car that deserves a good home.

Reserve is set much lower than my costs. 100% seller rating on Ebay. Can assist in arranging shipment. $2000 due within 48 hours of auction end, balance within 7 days.
