Took The Chief to see some truly amazing cars this weekend at The Amelia Island Concours. Extremely well done event - very impressive.
A really nice guy from the Wellborn Muscle Car Museum in Alabama brought 8 cars the show, including this beautiful’70 W30 convertible automatic. Equipped with a W-27 rear, A/C, Dual Gate, Rally PAC, 8 Track, power windows, hood lock. Does everything under the hood look in order ? I had to post in 2 parts.

I think the flapper top is repro. Could be wrong. Man, that has a lot of options. That's the kind of car you want a window sticker on if you're buying it.
The now dead Muscle Car Review had it on the cover & did a nice article on the car in the Oct 2013 issue after Tim & Pam Wellborn acquired it at a Mecum auction. That thing sure is loaded!
Let's start with the heaviest body style, get the AT motor with the lower performance cam, and then load it up with every heavy, power-sucking option in the book during the resto.
Sorry, give me the lightweight stripped version with MT, manual brakes, and 4-90 "air conditioning".
The Windshield washer bottle is on the wrong fender. An over restored car done by someone who only knew how to swap options from a Cutlass. At least the owner bought it before these cost 6 figures

This ‘70 442 convertible 4-speed was offered at no reserve at Amelia - Sotheby’s auction. I did not see it hammer but the house estimate was $90-$110k. It looked like an older restoration and most of the chrome needed work.
