Background:

I purchased this car on 9/9/08 from Auto Gallery, a local classic and performance car dealer in Spring Grove, IL.  I am unsure of the total number of owners this car has accumulated.  The car appears to have been restored within the last 5-8 years, though it does retain many of it's excellent condition original parts.  Body panels (other than the aftermarket hood), and much of the interior seem to be original.  The front seats have been recovered and stuffed with new foam.  The body, undercarrige, engine bay, and trunk have all been stripped, restored, and re-painted to their original colors; all aspects are very nicely finished and detailed.  Suspension and brakes appear to have been fully rebuilt.  Overall, the car is an excellent condition, super solid, show worthy driver with decent power on tap from the GMPP 350ci crate motor. 
I intend to eventually install a larger GMPP crate motor, specifically the ZZ383; featuring 425hp/460tq with 383ci.  At that time I will upgrade the carb to a Holley 750cfm, and the exhaust to 2.5" piping.

The pictures below were taken by the dealer prior to the sale.  I will be posting new pics once I've fully detailed the car.
