Originally a 170 slant six, white car w/ red interior. 3rd owner, original owner was an old lady in Vero Beach Florida. She parked it in her carport and drove it for errands! Second owner was a tow truck driver, and he managed to obtain 2 dents from keeping it in his towing yard. I bought it for a movie, being filmed in Athens, GA, and this was the main characters car, driving it across country during filming. Afterwards, I ended up doing many more upgrades in addition to the ones already done for the film. The car runs 15.7@88-ish right now with the stock original push button 904, stock converter, and 3.55 gears.

The car drives and handles great! It sticks to the road and feels like a sports car going down the road. I was planning on doing the 5 speed very soon but am needing to lighten the project load around here. I've put a lot of tight work into the drivetrain, someone will love this car. I wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere, it is very reliable.

The body is in great condition, there are a few small rust spots and 2 dents. The dents are in the passenger door, and the lower front valence panel on passenger side. The car had the original white paint, and was painted one time for the movie, in this yellow. There is very little rust under the car, none on any of the subframes, like I said it's a very solid car from a little old lady in Florida!

Here's what it looked like when purchased:

Currently, the underneath is very clean:

It would not take much to get the body looking nice again. There are only a few spots that need attention, and then a good coat of paint. The chrome and trim on the car is in excellent condition, lights and lenses, all real nice.

The interior is in good condition, the dash is factory excellent! The AM radio works! The front seat needs to be recovered, or replaced w/ buckets. The front armrests need replaced, the plastic cracked. The rear seat is pretty good, and the door panels are fine. The headliner isn't bad either, it's white. I think someone had the interior redone some time in the 90's.

I removed the aftermarket AC from the car but will include the AC parts w/ the car. Compressor is a decent Sanden if I'm not mistaken.

EXTRA PARTS INCLUDED:
