This car was frame off resto ---- ARP bolts and screws throughout entire build --- only 5k mileage on car -- no rust, no dents. Restore was completed 10 years ago and has sat in storage ever since. This is the perfect opportunity to acquire a big block convertible that is reliable enough for a daily driver. The suspension upgrades and transmission upgrade has made this car pleasurable and safe to drive. If the torque of the big block gets away from you then the 4 wheel disc brakes will stop you on a dime. This car is truly a one of a kind and looking for a good home to somebody who will appreciate the time and effort it took to get this car to this level.
