I bought this from the son of the original owner, who drove this car everywhere. He gave it to his son who hopped-up the engine & trans. (383-4 speed car) & did a damn good job. I was a mechanic for a long time so I can spot nice work right away. I bought the car from him in 2011 for 8 grand, which was a real good price in my opinion, for a very solid, one owner (basically) car. I got a lot of paperwork with it when I bought it including the original window sticker & some mid 11 second time slips the son gave me. I unfortunately had to sell it, but a good friend bought it & still has it to this day. He spent $30 grand on it to make it pretty nice. Not perfect, but a very nice driver that is faster than it looks. Here is a before (when I owned it) & after picture. Though some folks might enjoy them.

Pretty much but, it had the deluxe (Burnt Orange) interior. The seats were upholstered wrong when I bought it but whoever did it, did a pretty nice job & held up well over all these years.
Nice (stripper) low option car.
