The car is VERY clean, complete and rust free. The rear quarters and drop-offs look
perfect. It’s lived here in Southern California its whole life and was built here at the Van
Nuys plant. It would be a great car for someone looking for a formula 455.
I told the guy not to expect 16K for a non HO car and he knows he has to come down a
lot if he wants to sell it. If anyone is interested and wants more information, feel free to
PM me.
Looks like its on ebay now.

I see it also has the very rare big block option

Looks added spoiler which isn't end of world except if trunk lid falls shut that ruins it... some can't resist flares I guess, more common add than we think.... black tail and vents looks amateur... but looks like decent car at quick glance... in spite of the in spite of stuff, in the 20's for sure worth IMO...

With a remote release, and a quality paint job, you really don't want the trunk popping up and slamming. So mine doesn't stay up, But it doesn't "slam up" when I hit my remote or my wife hits the button in the glove box.

Just my 2 cents ..
