I know I sure could see me cruising this beauty down the local boulevard on a Friday or Saturday night. Craig could do, his first ride in the car he knew it was a solid, nice driving car; no rattles, no squeaks, ran great, and drove straight. He was quick to snatch it up for his collection. The car features factory power steering and factory power brakes, 390 cu. in. engine, four-speed manual trans, and 9” rear end. The only changes Craig made to the car were adding the classic American five-spoke mags and Hankook tires.
