Welcome to the site.
Please post some pics of the 70 W-30 two tone car.
I too have a 455 powered square body; mine is an 80 GMC. Mine was a 5.7 diesel originally. Was yours'?
Fill out your profile & add your location. When I am not in AB near Calgary I am at my place in Tsawwassen BC
Lots of members here from the Lower Mainland & a couple more on the Island.
I replied to your PM.
Dave

Now that you say Prince George I can place you. You sold a couple of Radiant Green 72s over the past few years. As per my message I think Devon has the automatic trans one. I knew the car when it was in AB years ago.
Glad to see someone grabbed that hood out of Red Deer. It was well priced but I had no need for it.
