I think a friend of mine used to own this car about 18 years ago. I called to ask him to look at the picture and he thinks it was his for a couple of reasons. 1. The Gran Sport emblem in the grill on his car he painted red, like the one in the photo. They were originally painted white. 2. He also removed the front bumper guards like the one in the photo. There are a few things he did to the car that are different than the one in the photo, but then again he owned it quite a few years ago. For instance, 1. He put a switch pitch 400 in it, when he rebuilt the motor. The add says numbers matching. 2. He removed the vinyl on the front half of the roof. The one in the picture appears to have a vinyl top. This car looks to be my friends and it was in the Twin Cities for quite a few years. I have lots more info about the car if you are interested. I new sooner or later this car would show up on this website!! Nick
I looked at this car. Very nice solid car! The guy called me to tell me it was for sale. I've known of the car for years. I posted a mention of it on this board before it went public.
Actually when it was in Minnesota it had a 3.64 10 bolt in it, but that was some 18 years ago. I haven't seen it in many years. Alot can happen in that amount of time. Back then it had new paint that was extremely well done, It doesn't look that great in the pictures but the Florida sun can take it's toll fast when left outside like in the picture.
not sure when this was listed in Hemming The add looked current, but I found it in my daily google searches. O well another one sold. I sure we will see more, the 73's and 74's are getting more attention now. :grin:
