Needs total restoration
Possibly original wheels
Original front disk brakes
Original brake booster
Original floors and rockers. Could be replaced or repaired with patch panels
Original power top appears to be all there. Can’t verify if pump or cylinders are good.
Original 400 short block. Last digit of VIN on block is one number off. Since everything else matches. I assume this is the correct block, crank and pistons
Possibly original rear axle with no gears or differential. Not posi.
Original 1/4's and inner/outer wheel wells. I have seen worse could be repaired.
Possibly original hood has rust underneath that could be repaired
Original tilt column needs work
Original paint color on 1/4's
Sub frame useable
Original automatic transmission is gone.
Have non original seats that need repaired
Top of front window frame has rust and will need repaired
Lots of rust underneath will need sandblasted to see how severe rust is on frame and rockers. Drivers front and rear section of frame rail will definitely need replaced,
Have copy of original build sheet. Was a highly optioned car before it was scavenged.
Although it is a lot of work it is definitely worth restoring being that it is a real 400 that had lots of options and has a the very desirable color combination of orange with a white top.
Willing to do partial or full restoration. Have 40 years’ experience rebuilding first gen f-body’s.
Will assist loading
