    A BB with disc brake delete? It's odd they didn't upgrade the brakes during the "no expense spared" restoration. It may have originally been a disc brake delete car, but obviously originality wasn't a concern. Also, check out the "teak" wheel. At least he's upfront about the NOM. Still a pretty car for a driver.

      Well, Other Than the.............

      ........1967 style antenna, phony seat covers, 1964 style knockoffs, Hurst shifter linkage, 1966 style door pulls, radial tires, base/clearcoat paint job, this is a very, very nicely prepped car. Oh, did I mention the "Stinger" hood? More to find. Oh, yeah!!

        Don't forget gas lid door, dash knobs, seat belts, wipers, rocker molding, glove box door. Lots of parts for 66 - 67. Not even commenting on engine compartment. It will still bring big $$$ because it's SHINEY!

              Yeah, but it's nice to look at all the same...better than sitting in some field someplace with vegetation growing out of the windows...even if they are not "CORRECT" they are dam pretty cars aren't they?

                That car can't possibly be categorized as restored. It doesn't have the now state of the art 50 to 75% orange overspray coverage all over the intake manifold.
