Power top works great. Top frame is straight, goes up and down with no problems and latcheswith no problems. Top is decentbut aging. No major rust, but has a few bad spots typical of drivenconvertiblesform this era. Engine is 454installed by dealer inthe 80s. Ibought it in late 2010. According to records, miles are original but that is unverified beyond repair receiptsdating back toengineinstallation. Manual windows. Powersteering. I addedfour wheel disc brakes with a kit from Matt's Classic Bow Ties. Stops like a newHonda Accord. Discs are slottedand vented, 12" front and 11" rear. Has newexhaust with new turbo mufflers. New gas tank.Front suspension rebuilt to factory specs- not lowered. New shocks and springs all around. Has factory manifold with block off plate.

Changed oil last fall, using Mobil One Synthetic and K&N Oil Filter. NOS SS Tail Lights, NOS 427 fender badges. New Plugs included. OriginalChevrolet SuperSport Gauge packageincluded, I was waiting formileage to get closer beforeinstalling them. Alsocomeswith Original Chevrolet Super Sport glove box badge. Bodypanelsare decent. Doors are aligned-they open and close almostlike new. Top does not leak noticeably in the rain- leave it out in a bad enough rainstorm and itmight get a little wet but there are no major leaks. Floors and trunk are decent, drain plugs removed to prevent major rust. Original color. Upholstery is ok with no major tears and can be restored orreplaced. Carpet is decent, no major holes. Still has original top boot and well liner in decent shape. Chrome around top well has a few dings but is nice overall. Bumpers and Chrome trim are good but not re-chromed yet. Glass is good and original. Glasswindow in convertibel top is also good. Lights and signals all work. Passenger side front marker light needs bulb. Original wiring is good fromthe firewall back. Could use headlight wiring harness. Haslarge aluminum radiator and runs cool. Tiresdecent but six years old. One spare rally wheel with dented trim ring included. GREAT project car, fundaily driver already. Needs full restoration to be perfect but it's all there. Buyer pays all shipping. Drive anywhere if you're smart about it- it's almost fifty yearsold and unrestored.
