    I've had this car for 11 years and I love it but I have a chance to buy a Wilcat convertible so need to sell this one.
    It's got a wonderful paint job (bergundy metallic) and except for a slightly beat-up package shelf, a super interior. It uses the 401 block w/425 torque and develops about 325 hp. It's got 170k miles on it with a new engine at approx. 20k). This body style is the same as the Chevy impala, Pontiac and Olds of the same year.
    It's also got
    - cruise control
    - auto, AC, PS, PB
    - Original AM radio
    - Bucket seats
    - Console

    I just put $1900 into a new carburetor, new distributor, electronic ignition, new air cleaner, muffler, intake manifold, heater core and other assorted goodies. It could probably use a set of duals for another 25-30 hp but that's $350 I don't want to spend just now.

    The $5500 I'm asking is less than I have invested but that's the way it is with some cars. If this were a '68 Chevelle it would be a different story. But it's nice to have strangers come up to you at stoplights, service stations and parking lots and tell you it's a great looking car.
