Chuxck:

If you're interested in the car, feel free to give Joe a call. I've known him for about five or six years. He is extremely straight-forward and honest. He has helped me a lot with some purchases that he had no involvement with. I think that you'll be surprised as he's not your typical high pressure dealer. I think he's a car guy first. Ed

I believe this may be the car that was next to my 70RS Z at Super Chevy Maple Grove in 2003....how many ultra low mile black 80 Z's are out there???
it was real nice, but I did not think it was fair that I was in the same class as a 1980 Camaro....

..as it turned out, I won first in class and the 80 Z took second place...and was definitely in nicer condition than my car...???

Don't we know someone who picked up a 70 in that area with the sheet still on the pumpkin?

That is not a castle nut as we know it.That is a no cotter pin nut that has the dimples on it so that it wont back off after tightened.

They are some kind of flare nut. Saw them many times when replacing idler arms, center links, and tie rod ends when I used to turn wrenches back then.

No cotter pin needed.
