I still have the column & pedals out of it, though. I parted the car & sold the shell. It was then used a a dirt track car.
I knew a guy back when I had mine that has a '79 SJ with a 301 4 spd. His mother bought it new. Last I saw it (about 15 yrs ago) it was pretty hammered. I heard he was restoring it, but I wouldn't even know how to get a hold of him. I'd love to find it.
By the way...I saw one regal ('78-80 style) in a salvage yard. They wouldn't sell me any parts off of it. |
The Regals and I assume the G/P's also had a 5 speed available as an option in 78.
