@Lonadvpool – Are there any leaks in the top around the windows or seals? ...
No sir. This car is very tight and drives as well as any muscle car i have every owned. I am 70 years old . The only reason i am selling is because i have made a deal on a 1970 LS6 chevelle and cant afford both of them
Are there any leaks in the top around the windows or seals?
BID: $41,000
@Lonadvpool – The carpet does not look like it fits properly under the dash? What’s the story there? Also is there damage to the chrome trim on drivers front wheel? It doesn’t look fitted properly? It’s a beautiful car but you should mention the flaws. Paint chip on trunk lock and very shorty repair. For this kind of money it should be flawless? ...
After inspecting my car this morning. Iam sure the carpet is aftermarket which would never fit like the factory carpet would have. Sorry i can not find what you are seeing on the chrome are the paint chip. Maybe it was my picture taking. Again i would recommend interested buyers to come look. I would like to take back my word mint i put in first comment. Its not but close. Its a 5 plus year restoration

@pjfong30 – I'm assuming this car is not an original SS since it indicates SS badging only? Is the car a factory 4 speed? Is it a power top? Do you have any history and restoration documentation ? ...
I traded my 56 Bel Air for this car with Steve from S&S Classic Cars in Bee Springs Ky. He had no paper docs with this car. Trusting Steve with his back ground on high end classics for many years, i traded feeling comfortable it was a true SS . He pointed out many ways and reasons to know this, date- correct CE warranty block , F41 supension, 12 bolt rear end tags and factory numbers. factory 4 speed no power top no restoration docs. This car is in mint shape with everything on it working properly even the clock. Steve had put the car in a Mecum auction a year ago were it brought 93500 and he did not sell it. I would suggest interested buyers to come look or hire a expert to. Its nicer than the pictures show
