I bought this time capsule from the son of the Original Owner down in La Mesa (San Diego, CA). I was told by the son that his mother kept this car in the garage it's entire life and that the miles on the odometer are accurate. Judging by the condition of the vehicle, I have absolutely no reason to doubt him. All we've done to her is pull the motor and trans and cleaned it up a bit. Fortunately, it also came with most of original paperwork,
Original, 2nd owner vehicle with straight lines and original paint. Original numbers matching 273, Edelbrock cam, intake and carburetor, Lokar kickdown, timing chain, Mopar black wrinkle aluminum valve covers and air cleaner, tti ceramic coated headers and full exhaust with polished stainless steel tips, Mopar electronic ignition, custom MSD 8.8 spark plug wires, MSD coil, new Melling high volume oil pump, new high torque mini starter, new battery, new hoses, new fuel pump, new motor and trans mounts, new fan belt, new water pump, new alternator, new voltage regulator, new starter relay, new thermostat, new stainless steel trans cooler lines, radiator has been rodded out, fully detailed engine compartment, runs real strong, sounds awesome, original California car w/ black plates, original paint (except in engine compartment and trunk), original interior, all gauges work, push button 904 trans shifts real smooth, garage kept most of it's life.
This is my first real restoration, and I couldn't be happier with the way she turned out. Thanks for looking... I appreciate it.
Check her out on youtube to see and hear what she looks like up close and personal : )
The original V-8 273. Very rare for this year and model.
I know Grandpa Osborn would have been proud of this ol' Mopar
