Negative on the straight axle, the Vette was in stock configuration, just painted up wildly. I think it was sitting high because the motor was out at the time.

With the Malibu turn signal lenses and incorrect two piece fan shroud too. It looks to be an Oshawa,Ontario build possibly,based on that pic.

Rick, What are you seeing in that photo that would indicate that? I only see one abnormality that might indicate that but other plants used them as well.

The car looks like it was smacked in the front at one time and that is why some of those things have been changed.bumper,grill,shround etc.

Yeah, but that's a painted intake. 
So what's there that makes it an Oshawa car????

Here's something more recent. I was traveling to work the other day and saw this sitting out during someone's garage cleaning, I guess. I stopped to say Hi, but the owner wasn't around. Original paint, 70 Mach 1. The dash completely out and it looks to have been that way for a long time. Not registered since early 1980's. Vin code was "H" 351 Windsor 2-barrel. Amazing shape for its age with only some minor rust bubbles starting in the bottom of the quarters.
