Completely numbers matching including: engine number (6120471), ransmission number (321165), nd paint code (40). An early production date of July 1971 makes this one of the first 1972 models ever produced. This particular car has been fortunate enough to receive an extensive ground up nut and bolt restoration. Overall this is a very impressive restoration done with driving, erformance, nd appearance all taken into consideration. The car is absolutely stunning. The drive is exhilarating and the cosmetics are nearly flawless. I would consider this a show car that can be driven. It is not quite 'pebble beach' status, ut it is certainly pretty damn close. I have driven this car and the previous owner drove this car. It does show some evidence of use. No notable flaws such as dings, ents or scratches. The interior is near perfect. The mechanicals are flawless. The handling is superb.EngineThe numbers matching engine has been completely rebuilt and has little over 1,000 miles of break in time. The original MFI was replaced with 40mm PMO carburetors. The result is an immensely improved driving experience.The engine is extremely spirited and drives strong throughout the power curve. The heat exchangers were restored to factory specs and the exhaust was replaced at the time of rebuild. The engine has been running SWEPCO 15/40 since the rebuild and does not leak or burn oil. The compression is extremely strong as one would expect. In addition to the rebuild the engine has been cosmetically restored to an 'eat off it' level.

No leaks of any kind mar the presentation of the power plant.TransmissionThe original numbers matching 915 transmission has been recently rebuilt. All gears are smooth and quiet.

The floors are entirely original and rust free. The body is strait as an arrow and free from any sort of filler. Not a single nut was left on the car during the painting process. The Glass, oors, ood and decklid were removed prior to paint in addition to all rubber seals and trim. Single stage paint was color matched according to the paint code and applied evenly. The result is an extremely presentable finish with zero overspray. A concourse judge may find flaws, ut overall I would say the finish is stunning.
