This was a California car that I bought in the desert (Palm Springs) a number of years ago. My understanding is that the VIN is consistent with a real factory SS.
A lot of the work was done in the desert, ome of it in NJ when I sold our house in Cali and moved the car by truck to NJ. It has always been garaged, ight now in a secure high rise self parking garage attached to my apartment building. The car is not driven in rain or winter. There are no rust issues. I have done a resto-mod update on it with the parts mentioned below. The paint was updated about 6 years ago. The odometer show miles since the tranny was installed.
This car is a fast mover but very drivable. I didn't want a show car, wanted a fun car so that's what I built. I wanted it to go fast, urn fast, top fast, nd sound fast. And that's what it does!
There are no major issues, lbeit the parking brake does not work and some chips in the paint that are minor and easily taken care of. The Vintage Air alternator was recently replaced. The A/C blows cold.
