VIN 137XXX shipped in June

Here's the EUN from the website

This is certainly a very nice car. I do notice it has a steel front valance, a replacement exhaust system, and replacement belts. Shows you how rare an all-original survivor is!

The air cleaner duct elbow with correct hardware for a 1973 is very tough to find, but not impossible. I agree that there were two different designs for strut braces with different thicknesses. I'm not sure if this was a model year difference or a difference that occurred within model years. The first I bought was too thin to mount properly, but the second was perfect. In addition, the 1973 duct piece that mounts to the air cleaner is held in place with a hex head screw. The first picture below is the duct with the thinner brace attachment piece.

I saw that car at MCACN last year. It also has some weird chrome wheelwell trim that someone added.

There was a white 1973 SD-455 TA bought new that had headers and gears installed on Day 2, and the owner went drag (and street) racing. The car only had a couple hundred miles when it was parked for decades. It's basically a time capsule, but the owner did indeed do a few things to it back in the day. Items were reinstalled or corrected when these cars became high dollar investments decades later, and the car was sold to a collector.

Does this look like an original SD 455 exhaust manifold to exhaust pipe flange? Cast iron.
