History
Purchased new in San Jose by my great uncle. Sold in 1974 to my 18 year old father, driven until 1979 when it was garaged until 2006. My dad stripped it to the bare shell, then passed it on to me. I completed the restoration from 2012-2017. I out sourced the body and paint, but completely overhauled all mechanical and electrical components myself. The upholstery is all original except for the head liner, dash pad and carpet. The wheels are the 14" steel wheels and hub caps that it came with new, including the spare. The 289 engine, 4 speed transmission and rear end are all original to the car.
Modifications
The exhaust is a 2-1/8" stainless twin system in a style respectful to the period of the car. It has a 4 speaker stereo system, as my teenage father installed speakers in the 1970's, so i decided to keep it the way he wanted it, with new speakers of course, but with the 1970's speaker grills still in place. The car is extremely original, I thought it deserved as much.
