These are when I bought it. Its completely apart right now. The push-button transmission is rebuilt the short block is together, I have a complete new interior for it. I feel I was lucky to get those interior parts as the guy making them has had bad health and from what I understand right now that's no longer available. All handmade. The doors and the front fenders were rust free, but these cars were notorious for having a bad trunk seal and I did put a floor in the trunk. the car has a subframe like a Camaro, And that is next on my list to pull it out and get it on the rotisserie. My car is supposed to have a white top which I think is pretty unusual and not sure I have seen other than maybe one more. I believe the car was painted in the early 70s. One rumor I heard with it was that it was in a Cannonball Run and the guy got to Delaware Ohio had engine problems and traded it for something so he could keep going. The interesting thing it did have a blown head gasket at one time in it's life. I doubt if any of that is true but we were able to trace it that it was delivered to the pool at the engineering plant. It was at the end of the 61 model year so it was probably not a magazine car. A guy who had worked there thought that was pretty unusual to have a car like that delivered there for anybody to run around in, so he figured an executive must have ordered it and picked it up. Last picture is the rear seats, it has a console in front and rear. Carbs are fine work of Eric Jackson
