Some more information regarding questions that I have received:

The car has a 7 leaf rear spring. It appears to be original.

The core support is rusted away at the bottom, nd appears to be original.

There are 2 holes in the LH fender apron where the fuel injection air cleaner would mount. There are plastic plugs in them. Judging by their condition, hey have been there a long time.

The underside of the car has surface rust on everything. The frame does not have any visible holes. The deepest corrosion is on the aft end of the rocker rail.

The floor pan carpet was removed because it was simply turning to dust.

The 67 side slats were added in 1969, nd only the portion from the bonding strip down was replaced. There are witness holes for the fuel injection emblem.

This car has been in Oakland County, ichigan its entire life. The documentation is solid, nd it has a Greenwood certificate of Authenticity. The car is still titled from 1969. There are a few pictures of it from 1969 when the body modifications were done and had primer on those areas, nd of it in its finished state.

The engine fires right up and runs smoothly. This is not a monster L88, have no idea what camshaft is in it. It has solid oil pressure. I have only driven the car around the block, nd the trans shifts smoothly.

A Holley 750 was installed simply to get it running. No tuning has been done, s I have not driven the car extensively.

I am listing the car for the 2nd owners' widow. The information I have came directly from him before he passed.

Please contact me for information or more pictures, will be happy to respond.
