Default '69 RS/Z, Original Paint, Etc...Nice

Pretty certain this car was owned by a guy who lived a couple blocks from my parents in Wauwatosa, WI. Looks quite nice to say the least, but I'm surprised it's still original paint with all the obvious (extensive) restoration on the engine bay and underside.

It looks like they are claiming the paint on the engine is original. Call me a skeptic but I find that very hard to believe.

Especially since the pad has been painted.

It's been a long time since I've seen it, but I think it was represented as restored.

Well, there's a reason for that. That's not the original engine, IMO.

That car is "nice" but way far from the pasture from original. Motor NOM and look at at the detailing someone got carried away like a model car.

I made the assumption that when they said original paint that they meant original color. There is no way on earth that the engine and under carriage is original paint.

Listing has ended.

It was at asking of $75,000, that's kind of aggressive with NOM.
