Complete owner history: I have talked to the original owner who special ordered this car new from the dealer. She loved fast cars and wanted the best out there. She ordered this car the way she wanted it, tealth in black, nd faster then the more common muscle cars. She ordered most all of the Go-Pac options "a la cart" to have it optioned the way she wanted it. The car cost $5,000 new in 1971. She sold it in 1988. There have been only 3 other owners.Here is a quote from when I talked to the Original Owner (she bought the car new when she was 27 years old, raded in her 1971 Javelin on it. I have all paperwork and sales contract): "I purchased her from a dealer called State American in Schenectady NY in 1971-special order and thought it would never get here. The day that I drove it home two guys on I-87 in a Grand Torino thought they could go faster but I showed them who had the faster car--really loved that car."

Bumpers have beenre-chromed, ll trim is excellent.The rear bumper blackout treatment is not paint, t is the factory correct decal. Paint:Beautiful original color Classic Black paint, eryshiny, nly a couple of small chips. Paint is not new, think its 10-15 years old but looks new, o bubbles or issues.

Motor: Original numbers matching 401c.i. was rebuiltin 1981by Ed Kopper (who was crew chief for funny car driver Bob Newberry). In 2013 the motor was refreshed with new rings,bearings, am, ifters, alve springs,timingset, t 47,872 miles (2,000 miles ago).I have allreceipts.

The tape player works perfectly and is great to show to the young kids. Most of them don't understand how music can be on tape inside a plastic box, nd why sometimes a song isinterruptedby the player "changing gears" (tracks). Of course, he older people all have great memories of 8 track players. If this were a 4 speed, /C Big block Camaro, uda, hallenger, TO, 42, ustang, tc., t would sell for $80,000+. This is a greatbargainfor a top of the line Muscle Car, nd will onlyappreciate as more people find out about these super-rare Muscle Cars. You never see these cars in this condition.
