It was parked in '83 and hasn't moved since. The body rust is minimal and in the usual California car places, the frame is solid and the interior is nice and original. I plan to restore the interior, get the frame powdercoated, and get it back on the road. I don't plan on touching the exterior. There's a 400 SBC under the hood mated up to a Powerglide - should be fun around town and at the Thursday night drags.
I probably overpaid for it ($460) a bit, but a body with no cancer is worth its weight in gold to me, I absolutely
hate doing bodywork. Getting it back on the road and past DMV inspection should be easy.
Any other guys in the LA area? Are there any meets that go on? And no, that's not me in the pic. :p
