Car description

*****UPDATE: I had to relist this because there was some confusion about the car. This is a Tempest NOT a GTO. I originally listed it as a GTO clone and did everything through my phone app, so I think the categories were misleading. So, I decided to just relist and add some information. There are no other parts available from the Muncie/th350 swap other than the original clutch pedal assembly. Previous setup utilized a hydraulic throwout that is not included, so no linkages. I can't find the old PHS documents for specifics, but I included a picture of the car the way it looked in the 90's to show the stock badging/styling. This isn't 15% away from being a 40K vehicle. The body is straight but I don't know how much filler is underneath the single stage paint job. Hood is aftermarket. Frame and most of the body is solid with a couple pin holes in the rocker where the trim would cover it. Rotted Trunk pan was cut out and aftermarket was tacked in. Glass channels look intact. I'm going to try to see if I can fit everything in the car for shipping. I'll revise the listing on Thursday after I get a chance to wrap the fender to let everyone know if all the parts fit in the car safely for shipping. Car does not run, and the driveshaft is disconnected. Title is Clean. Again sorry for the confusion and the hassle. Feel free to reach out if you want to chat about any concerns. I want this to go smooth, so keep asking questions. Thanks*****

This is a rolling project that's 85% finished. Last time I touched this car was about 3 years ago. Car was finished but then I got the itch to upgrade. I started a swap from a Muncie to th350, hydraulic brake booster, and type ii ps pump. Drivetrain is a SBC 383 gear drive stroker mated to a rebuilt th350. It's bolted up To the mounts but that's it. I have the current parts setup listed below. Only a few hundred miles on the aftermarket parts. Let me know if you want to check it out in person before the auction ends. I need this project gone this week so top bid gets it. Issues to consider: Seats are from a 65 chevelle/ steering wheel is from a 67?/ driver's fender Gap is off and needs to be replaced (comes with solid OEM fender)/ cancer in the front pans under the dynamat. Thanks
