The Story
Purchased by my father in 1971. He restored it in the early years of his ownership. Recently, my brother and I began a second comprehensive restoration. Due to unexpected medical issues, we are unable to finish it. We are looking for a classic enthusiast to take the reins and complete this beautiful Chevy's story.Body & Paint (Completed)

• Professionally repaired metalwork; all weak areas corrected.
• Freshly repainted in its striking, original two-tone factory colors.
• Straight, solid body that is ready for final reassembly.

Interior (Included but Removed)

• The full interior was removed for restoration, making the final assembly easy.
• All original interior components are included and mostly in good condition.
• Upholstery can be reinstalled as-is, or upgraded to fresh material.
• Note: Will need a new headliner.

Engine & Drivetrain (Needs Recommissioning)

• Features the original drivetrain.
• The engine ran strong before the restoration began.
• A top-end rebuild was completed, but the engine has not been started or tuned since.
• Transmission and rear differential have very old fluids and must be serviced before driving.
• Summary: The mechanical systems are complete but need a full recommissioning after years of sitting.
