This car belonged to my late Brother in Law. He passed away in 2011. It is a true super sport. I don't think it has the original engine, but I'm am sure it has the original power glide. This car was his baby, and he took good care of it and also spent a lot of money on it too. The body is in good shape, but it does have putty in the front right fender and right rear quarter. I know this because there are a few hairline cracks in both areas. These are some of the items that I know of that he fixed or replaced. Carpet, Headliner, Floor Mats, Rebuilt Transmission, Put mild cam in engine, New bumpers, Original SS Steering wheel, (had one of those mini wheels when he got it). Tires are in good shape. He was always pittleing around with it, and I am sure there are lots of other things he did. There are a few small bubbles on the hood, and around the left rear wheelwell. He also replaced all the chrome fender trim. I brought it to my house about a year ago. Up until that time, it had been under cover, which is included. It now resides in my garage. After sitting for approximately 5 years, it needed a little work, so I did a few things to it. I had to put a new rubber brake line on the front left and in the rear. I also put in new upper a arm bushings, and upper ball joints while I had them out. Also had a front end alignment at that time. It does have a few issues, but nothing major. It has a small transmission leak, as far as I can tell, it is coming from the speedometer cable connection. Also has an exhaust leak at the heat riser, as the riser itself is cracked. Car is an original AC car, but he removed the evaporator case from under the hood. Any case from that era Chevy fits this vehicle. It really is a nice old car, but as I said, has been mostly sitting since 2011. Please call me at 304.633.8255, and we can discuss any questions or concerns you may have. I would definitely suggest trailering this car, as I would not trust it on a long road trip. You are welcome to come look it over.
