Everything else is either brand new or has been restored. It has been gone thru front to back & top to bottom. Engine is extremely healthy & makes a lot more power than stock. It always fires right up first crank. It was built to be an all around reliable muscle car. Whether you’re cruising to a car show or driving it on a long distance, it is extremely reliable. Albeit it makes a lot more horsepower & torque it is not radical, nor does it take away from the driving experience in any way. It has a nice healthy idle & sounds very aggressive at wide open throttle. However when cruising there is zero drone & its a pleasure to drive around town or on long highway trips. The transmission shifts thru the gears nice & crisp. Clutch effort is just right. Brakes hard & fast when you want it to. Suspension is all dialed, so the car handles excellent.
The paint & body are exceptional. Car is painted in its original Cardinal Red with 6 coats of clear coat. The body lines & gaps look great. Doors & trunk open & close nice & tight with no unusual resistance or slack. It’s not perfect but it’s exceptionally clean with a deep lister & lots of shine. The interior is simply beautiful. The factory AM/FM radio works & plays nice & clear thru the new speakers. The horn works, headlights & taillights, turn signals all operate normally. Factory gauges are accurate & operate normally. There is Autometer Oil Pressure & Water Temperature gauges mounted in a panel above the factory Hurst shifter level. I do have the original Hurst T shift knob (see pics) I can include if you would rather have that over the Hurst shift ball (which I prefer). While driving on the highway with the windows up, it is very quiet inside the interior. That pays tribute to the exceptional panel alignment & gaps as well as the new door & window seals. There is a full size factory spare in the trunk along with a jack.
