Additional Info:

I bought the car in California in 2002 and shipped it to Ohio, but it's never seen snow or salted roads, staying a California car at heart. My overriding goal, whenever I was working on the car, was to keep it as original as possible, to keep the unique look and style intact.
I personally have rebuilt the carb, replaced the carpet and installed Dynamat,reupholstered therear sail panels, replaced the worn and faded "wood grain" stickers on the center console shifter and storage bay with oak laminate panels, replaced the radiator, replaced transmission coolant lines, and I tracked down a passenger-side mirror and replaced the driver-side one with a mirror that includes a remote.
I also removed the non-functioning A/C condenser, and am including it with a few other bits and pieces I've accumulated over the years. Stuff like spare brake pads, an extra 1/4 window, an extra kick-panel vent, a spare panel that fits between the rear window and trunk-lid, a box of Pompeii Yellow rattle can paint, some spare lengths of 4" and 1/4" vinyl stripes, the original valve covers, the original distributor.
There is also a custom-cut cover for the car, when it has to be outside. Soft on the inside, durable and waterproof canvas duck cloth fabric shell, I've mostly used it even inside my garage over the winters just to cocoon the car up and prevent bumps and scratches.
I had the professionals at Evans Automotive in Columbus, Ohio rebuild the steering and replace the front suspension, install Edelbrock valve covers, and replace the distributor with a Mallory Unilite unit.
I had it polished and detailed, got the inside of the trunk Rhino coated, and I removed and re-installed the stripes this July. The radiator replacement was this July, too.
It's a great car, and always gets heads turning just by being such a unique bit of history. They only made2,183 of these 390s with the automatic, and this is your chance to own one.
As you can see from my pictures, I'm not trying to hide anything with some staged presentation or cover up. The car is 57 years old and has a handful of things that are keeping it from being "best-in-show" or "showroom," but she's a solid car, and if you're as excited about owning a unique piece of American automotive muscle car history as I was 24 years ago, taking the car to the next level will be rewarding for you. I'm ready to hand it off to the next generation.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-EDIT July 31- I added a video from right after I'd re-installed the stripes, and some older pics of the car in the garage with the cover on.
EDIT 2- If she doesn't sell here, look for the car on one of the more common classic car trading sites, where you might need to bring some sort of trailer or something. Unfortunately, that'll mean like a 10% cut for the "service" they provide.
