WOW!! That sounds like a great GP and in a color you rarely see. If I ever hear of one like that I will let you know.

Thank you! Yes, Denny had restored the car over a 10 year span and it was finished in the summer of 2015. It wasn't a body-off restoration, but most of the car was gone through. The car now has 130K, he retired the car as his daily driver back in 1982 with 115K miles.

Beautiful, love the 4 speed, and the provenance is golden!

Awesome car, Grant. I know Jay Kimball, one of the sons of the owner of Kimball Motors back in the day.

No kidding, that's cool! I'd love to have some plate frames for this car, I wonder if he may have a pair?

Hi Bill, the 3-speed & 4-speed manual was only available behind the 400 so no SJ's with 4-speed were built.

This looks like a well-maintain vintage car. It looks amazing.
