Notes: Car won many trophies at local shows 300 + cars at shows and even won a best modified and best interior award. I even time trial ran it in ¼ mile drags at Atco NJ and best time was 14.4. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed this car for the 11 years and even working on it for 6 years prior. It is not a perfect concourse national show car but a very very nice turn key car to drive and enjoy. Rides like a new car with power steering and power disc brakes auto trans and comfortable seats. I have many pictures and also video. The car is featured in Classic Chevy World Aug 2005.
