Anyone familiar with this Lucy?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/31358983390...53.m1438.l2649

Very close to my VIN so guessing they rolled off the assembly line on the same day

This car is Not Lucy ( they took all the green out) , nice starting point though. What was factory rear gear, 3.31?

They sure look snappy with the window moldings.

Always tough to read colors based on dig pics posted on the internet... but the color looks pretty darn right to me?

Since the invoice for the car shows Heavy Duty Radiator, I would guess it's an M21 / 3.73 car. But it would need to be verified via the codes. Restore a Muscle Car knows these cars well enough that I would have thought they'd specify which trans/axle in the listing...

You can stick 10 Lucy cars next to each other and they all look different. I like this version of it.

From reading the listing it doesn't sound like RAMC did any work to it, just selling for someone. Mentions painted several years ago. Listings that claim the car is a "survivor" that have had full repaints bother me.

As far as I know, that wasn't an available combination, at least from the factory in '70. Selecting M21 as the transmission forced the 3.73 axle ratio.

The reverse was not true, though... as the M20 could be had with 3.55 or 3.73, or 3.31 with A/C.

Whose ramc

Just curious .
You know hear threads always suck later when the listing is gone.
Just a suggestion a screen shot of the add would make these threads sooo much better. A year or two from now when I re read it cause my memory is lousy .lmao

I cab have a conversation w someone this week and have no idea who it was next week remember the conversation if I’m lucky just not who it was with. , damn isocyantes.
