The Tremac seems out of place to me, in this car. Think I'd rather have even a regular M21 if a M22 couldn't be located.
I spoke with the guy. At first he was very nice, but as the conversation continued, he got nasty. I was interested in the car even with the items I saw a problem with but he wouldn't give a vin number or a copy of the PHS.

I asked if it was a early or late VIN. When he said the build date was 1/31/72. I told him "Thank You for the info but I was no longer interested in the car". He asked why and I told him I think the speedometer might have been changed because it should have "beltminder" on a late built car. He asked why that would make a difference and I said at this time (for me anyway) the car is TMU. Then he started F bombing and said "I don't like you numbers matching guys" so we ended the conversation.

I think there's a lot more wrong than looks on the surface.
