I have had this car since 2011 and during that time I have rebuilt the engine (bored out 350 with a 4-barrel Edelbrock carb and headmen headers). It was in a fender bender in 2016 and got new paint and a front bumper after that. I replaced the seats and carpet. I forgot to lock the T-tops and lost one so it has a new smoked plexiglass top on it now. Installed a radio and speakers earlier this year along with new door panels.
The current issues with the car are as follows. It has no power steering due to a pump issue, but still steers just fine. The paint is blemished in a few spots but most of it can be cleaned up. The door locks do not work and the windows need adjusted a little bit. The dash is weathered and the speedometer and odometer don't work. I HAVE PUT 6,000 ON IT BUT THE ODOMETER DOESN'T WORK SO I DON'T KNOW THE REAL MILEAGE. It has a vacuum leak that makes the headlights not open without a small nudge however, they close just fine. It has an AC but I haven't messed with that system at all.
Overall, this car is leaps and bounds ahead of where it started but my wife wants me to sell it due to lack of space to store it properly. It's a joy to drive and look at.
