Description

This is a good looking straight car. the paint still looks good after 20 years. A little back story on the car. it belonged to a good friend of mine. he had purchased the car over 20 years ago. it started out with a nasty sbc. he then decided to get a bit wilder and went to a high compression BBC. he spent all kinds of money getting the car how he wanted it. it was his play toy. he probably drove it a couple hundred miles a year. Ten years or so ago he moved to Palm Bay Fl. the car just sat in the garage. and 2 times a year he would take the car to a car show. Needless the say it sat a lot. So. he decided to sell it for something more street friendly. I had a nice Camaro. so we did a trade. I had the car for the last two years. it was too much motor to cruise around in. I tried. but the dominator didn't like it. and my wallet didn't like putting race fuel in it at $10 plus dollars a gallon. Which brings it to its current state. I pulled the high compression BBC. put in an early 70010 sbc . 30 over. forged flat tops. with an iron set of angled plug World Products heads. a nice little 292 510. cam. some roller rockers. performer intake. 650 double pumper. its got a Th350. a little shift kit . and a 3500 stall. So the car is now very drivable . sounds aggressive . runs on 93 all day no problems. The brakes are Wilwood heavy duty up front. rears are aluminum drums. The rear is still the 12 bolt 4:10 . aluminum girdle. spooled. 32 spline Strange axles. the rear frame rails have been sectioned and boxed for large tire clearance. Its got a Barry Grant pump. 13 gallon fuel cell. The interior is in really good shape. the seats. door panels and headliner are all custom. the dash is excellent. it has a cage still. with swing outs. it can be removed with a little effort and skill. I do have a nice set of Comp Cams Valve covers that are new. which I will put on if you prefer . also not picture an air breatherI will consider partial trades. no junk. no projectsdo not make an offer if you are unsure of something. feel free to call. I will return your call asap if I don't answer. 352 494 6913the car is titled in my name
