Beautiful and rare car - I believe this is actually 1 of 33 rather than 1 of 66, as the seller claims. The 'Before' pics make the car look pretty decent before restoration started....

Here's another auction that would really benefit from a decent photographer.

Restored by Thornton's, so you can bet it's nice.

Super Kool 442. You couldn't get A/C in any W-30 for 1972 so that is a big plus for this 442. Based on the docs the W-25 OAI hood was added. While the docs don't show the 4 speed option, since this is a "V" code in the vin, that tells you it was a 455/4 speed.
