The car looks a lot better in the pictures but is a very solid black plate car. The seller seemed to be very honest and decent. The front and rear bumpers are kinda beat up and its missing the wiper motor. The car has a '73 400 in it. I did not hear the car run. He said that the starter needed to be properly shimmed... it probably needs a flexplate by the way he said it (JMHO) as he wasn't real eager to start it. My biggest beef with the car is that it was a little to beat up for what i was looking to do with it... and I just couldn't get over that white interior.... nonetheless it is a very solid car and I'm sure you will be very happy with it. He was asking $7900... I offered $6,000 and he called me back a day or two later but I said that I had already bought something else. I'm glad I held out because I wouldn't have been able to get the '70 T/A that I just bought

BTW - 8 lugs would make that car!
I agree about the 8 lugs. According the the Protectoplate and the PHS, the car came with a 338 horse 4bbl motor. The tripower is a 66 setup. The wiper motor is in the trunk. I have a friend in San Jose who looked at the car for me.
