Restored factory stock 2008. 2nd owner with 74k miles since new. 454cid, 365hp, 4 speed, and positraction rear. Convertible with removable factory hardtop, am/fm pushbutton radio, and PDB's. No other options. Never been wrecked, no damage to fiberglass body or metal frame. Shows like new, paint is HOK base coat with 3 coats of buffed clear. Winner of multiple show awards to include Best In Show, Paint, Interior, Under Hood, and Underside. A real beauty.

Future Plans

Plan on "pleasure" drives, club activities, and just plain long enjoying tooling around in such a classic. I am old enough to remember wishing I could buy/own this car but had to wait for the opportune time. I have owned this particular car for 20 years. One imminent project on my list is to convert the air/fuel system from carburetor to EFI. Since one of the primary values of this classic is its originality I will carefully remove, label, bag and box all parts removed for the EFI conversion.
