We restored the car about 5 years ago with a beautiful Ford metallic silver paint with a black hood and trunk stripe. You can see the video of the restoration here:
As you can see in the video above, we had fixed what little rust issues it did have as well as some minor collision damage in the rear before hitting it with the gorgeous Ford Sterling Gray Metallic.
Approximately 10k on the rebuilt front end, The 383 big block runs strong and has ~20k miles on it. Aftermarket CD player and speakers. Although it is always garaged, it is not a garage queen.............it's a strong, reliable cruiser that turns lots of heads and wins lots of awards.
It's got a small oil leak at the pan gasket, but other than that, it's a strong runner that sounds awesome and is a real head-turner.
Car is sold as-is and the winning bidder will have to pick it up or arrange shipping.
