That car was sold new down by Ray Morrison. Gary Dyer had that car restored several years ago. Very, Very nice car. Kim

The gift that keeps on giving...
I spent 10 more hours at the sellers property yesterday and turned up some great stuff. Here is actual gauge pack that was in the car when he bought it. Notice wood grain sticker. Outside holes on top were drilled to attach to underdash. Gauges are in good shape. I have more...

Here is tach and sending unit seller gave me. The outline and holes on the firewall match up to box, and the holes in the cluster line up to tach. I am assuming these are correct parts for the car? I saved the best for last...

Icing on the cake. In the 10th hour of searching we found the original Yenko emblems. Note the one with the nuts came from tail panel. The one with the post broken off came from pass. fender. The pass. fender emblem was just pushed into a metal basket used to hold the emblem. The post is still in the fender so I might be able to repair and make work. I need 2 more and some 427 emblems if anyone has any stashed they would go to a good home. I also got 90% of the rest of car including drivetrain and smog all orig. and dated. That was 3rd trip, I am almost too old for this. See ya later...

Thanks Rob,
You should see the stuff I have seen at this guys place. Things that I would like to have one of, he has several of each rare part. I want to clarify one thing I said in the previous post so there is no misunderstanding. I said the parts I got were mostly orig and dated. The engine is not the orig engine that came in the car but a dated nice CE 427 4 bolt main that would have been what would have come in the car. Some of the other stuff was with the car and the rest I had my pick from a huge wherehouse of used and NOS stuff. Thanks again...
