Well, after thinking about it for some time, 1 have decided to see if someone else would like to enjoy my 1969 442. I am just not able to dedicate the time and effort to really enjoy it like I should. The 3 year restoration was completed in 2011. Very few miles since then. Every component on the car has been restored, refurbished or replaced with new. This was a frame on restoration, but all suspension was removed and rebuilt (front and rear) The underside of the body and the frame were cleaned up and painted. All nuts, bolts and screws were removed, cleaned up and reused. Body is extremely straight with patch panels on one fender and one rear quarter. Very little filler on this body. Door, hood and trunk gaps are perfect. This car is 95% stock with only a cam change and a anti-spin unit added to the stock rear gears. If you are looking for a very nice, real 442, you will not be disappointed.
Car is located in central Texas near Waco. I would rather you see the car in person or have someone else inspect the car. If you are interested, PM me your info and I will get in touch.
I have sold a lot of cars but all of them have been local. No special financing or trades.
