This one requires some vision...look past the orange paint and 1990s speed parts...but check out the 6000rpm tach redline, optional gauges, 4-speed, ladder bars, etc. The tach alone is a 425hp piece and the rest of the equipment seems to suggest this might have been one of those special cars. Currently has a NOM 396....

I'd check this one out if I were local to York, PA.

Maybe. Correct hood for SS427, wonder if he has the chrome insert that is suppose to be on that hood. Wrong Harrsion radiator for 425hp car. Should be the big 4 row.

My 68 L72 Biscayne has a two row CK radiator in it from the factory

Agreed that it has some L72 and/or SS427 indicators, but wouldn't it have SS427 emblems on the steering wheel and dashboard if it was indeed an SS427?
