I have had the car for about 10 years waiting in line to do the restoration but as I get older and with less time on my hands have decided to let a few projects go.
When we received this running drivable car we completely disassembled the entire car with the exception of the original underdash wiring harness and interior dash components which are in excellent uncut condition. The car was completely media blasted a few years ago to reveal any issues. Very solid west coast car.
Original 289 engine runs strong C5AE-6015-E (5C30). C-4 tramission is also in perfect working condition.
VIN is stamped in three different locations on the right and left inner fenders as it should be.
Has its original quick turn ratio power steering box with its tag HCC AW date code 5C16C
You get all the reusable parts pictured that were on the car. Chrome items are nice. Some pieces that will be needed include carburetor, rear bumper, dash pad, battery, grill, windshield, front and rear valances.
Hood was a NOS red oxide that was painted for another car and after painting found to have some low spots as seen by the filler which work had been started until the customer came in and decided he wanted to just get another NOS hood. Other than that the hood is excellent like new. Underside is still painted.
Deck lid is in excellent condition but does have four bolt holes from a luggage rack that was originally on the car. You could install a new rack or weld up the four bolt holes and go without it.
Cowl is in perfect condition with no rust.
