I suspect North Korea would love to have that.

I'd be embarrassed to work on that car, hell, I hope no one saw me looking at it!

Brings back memory's (thats all) I worked on them at the dealership when new. Built fairly well and I think we had about six of them to prep.

If they think it's an 'original' 455, there's no telling what it is. One thing's for sure...they don't know.

That's what I was thinking. If the price is right, it's still a good scavange.

What I want to see is the data plate. It looks kinda like 2-tone with painted top. Although the car looks too trashed to restore, it would be something different to bomb around in.

I remember years ago when I had my first trans am in 1987 ( 1978 T/A) A friend who was 10 years my senior was telling me I needed to find a 428 to replace that 400 engine & have some fun. I thought he was kidding as I had never heard of a 428 at the time. Pretty much a 67-68 big car engine & I wasn't really into those cars or the nostalgia of the pontiacs at the time. He sadely passed away a few years back & I always think of him now if I hear about a 428.

You very rarely see these cars, let alone two at the same location!
