I am seriously considering buying this car a forum member pointed out for me. I have some questions, and you guys are the experts.
Please look at the engine bay pics. Does the engine bay look correct? I'm not sure about that air cleaner and some wiring looks sloppy. I can make out a W on the exhaust manifold in the third pic and I think I can make out E head casting under the alternator bracket. Let me know if anyone spots something else.
Another question, the paint code is a 50 H. I know the 50 is for Bamboo on a 70, but what is the H for?
Thanks for looking,
Matt

 

I'm going to guess gold.

 

50 = bamboo
H = gold vinyl top

 

The air cleaner dosn't look right because it looks like a Holley carburator on it pic #2 i see a dual feed fuel line.Nick

 

I don't see the AC condenser + dryer in front of the rad. The wiring is nasty, you're probably going to need a harness unless you are REALLY good at wiring. Something very weird by the power brake booster, I don't know what it is. A left handed electrical confiscator or something!

 

Thanks to everyone who responded, I appreciate the help.

"unless you are REALLY good at wiring" - Yeah.. that's not me. Harness it would have to be.
"A left handed electrical confiscator or something!" - Right next to the flux capacitor!

I didn't notice the missing A/C parts, glad you pointed that out.

Hey Matt, where did you find this car? Is it local?

 

Hey Dave,
No the car is near Atlanta. Had to expand my search!

 

Ok, if it was close I would be happy to look at it with you. I'm no expert, but I've gained a tremendous amount of knowledge from this sight and working on my own car.

 

You looking for a driver or a project ? I just got a 70 442 from CA. Galleon gold/Brown vinyl top and gold buckets. As rust free as they come all #'s match. It runs but will need a rebuild and paint/ not to be nice. Message me if interested.

 

Wow, that's really cool of you. I'd be happy to have you come over to take a look at the car I finally do end up with. Thanks!

 

I sent you a PM, haven't heard back from you.

 

It's messy but doable...don't dive too deep into your wallet on this one
