Hi everyone, new guy from CO.
A few months back I made a great shed find with this car, from a guy whos father passed while he was restoring the car. Body / frame off restoration, with what looks like all new parts. I had a paint guy check the body and the panels, doors, etc. are all 100% and all original with zero rust / bubbling. The car has been jambed with We are looking for the speedo head to determine the actual mileage. There are boxes of parts that came with the car (boxes and boxes and piles and piles of parts, original fenders, bumpers, original fiberglass hood with dual scoops, shifters, interior, etc. The engine looks to be a crate replacement, with no stamping #s on the block. All the trim was wrapped in newspaper from 1990, so I believe that is when he started the restoration. The seller (guys son) also had pics of the car when his Dad bought it new in 1970. Looking to learn more about these cars and figure out the remaining assembly and then sending her off for Sherwood Green paint and a white top! Cheers
Thanks! It does have E heads, but the block that should have the VIN derivative is blank. I am thinking crate engine from the 90's or warranty replacement?
Welcome aboard! Nice project! Post a picture of the casting numbers/letters on top of the block just forward of the intake manifold and above the water pump.
