Meanwhile in Nebraska
At "Restore a musclecar" theres another 'beauty 73. Black firewall paint down to the end of the subframe, and front torque box area very pitted.
This shows just how rotten this car was. Imagine spending over 95K for this? Truly a Flipper shop, trying to make people think this is investment grade. Their contribution to repop plastic parts for second gen cars is great though. https://www.ebay.com/itm/31428474667...Bk9SR4T04KmnYQ

Still a bunch of RED Auto L75 '73 T/A's out there. Definitely more Red ones than White, or BG.

I don't like the level of gloss shining off the fender extractor grilles. It was just blackened mesh.

And what about this one? "Full nut and bolt restoration"? Look at the underside photos. Maybe they ice blasted it but it's not restored. Aso they say it's numbers matching but the car is 112818 and the block is 527818.

That's a lotta cash for not a lotta car!
Btw, Bruce, I got my 70 TA out of that hell hole of a body shop. It's currently waiting in line to go to Paint Works. I'll be in touch with you asking all sorts of questions regarding the correct details on the resto hopefully very soon!

That Red 73 is a fast runner .
One look at the deteriorated condition of the VIN plate and cowl tag - and start running , Fast. Don't even know what to say on the engine VIN stamp of the 70 |
