While it is an original 4 spd car (with Canadian-installed Chevy 12 bolt), and apparently has the matching block and correct C heads, I am always worried about a freshly-painted car from the rust belt. I have no knowledge of this seller or this car, but in the past I have found that "no rust" usually means "no immediately visible rust". This may, in fact, be a very solid car (the seller has provided a refreshingly honest description in the ad from what I can see in the pictures), but I remain skeptical until proven otherwise.

Plus, it has stripes on the trunk!!!! ()

Well, if Joe bought it, I'd secretly contact the seller and get him to put on some nice W-36 stripes as a nice surprise.
