History
Purchased by me Dec 2017, barnyard find, it hadn't moved for 20 years. Still has original motor, g/box & diff. One of the rare 253 4 speeds in the HZ GTS, from 1978 all HZ GTS were 308ci. So I decided to keep it original apart from a few minor upgrades listed below. I had a '78 308 4 speed one when I was young, of course always regretted selling it so had been looking for another for a while. This one got a full resto last year motor, g/box, brakes, respray (it had very little rust) and interior. Its not a show car but my wife and I use it a lot cruising on the weekends. 253's have always had the best exhaust not of any engine on the road.
