It was my plan to turn this into a street cruiser on bags, but I have since picked up some new stuff and need to off this for some room for the new project.

The car was originally a six-cylinder car but has since been swapped out for a 302/T5 combo. It gets 25 MPG on the highway with her all the way up to WI and back as well to IL multiple times and has been nothing short of reliable (2.77 rear gear I believe). It has been down the track once just for curiousity against a stock '98 Cobra and the win went to the '65 going easy with it. The car wasn't built to be a race car or anything like that...Just a nice reliable daily driver with crazy low insurance premiums and a nice classic feel to it.
The car itself has the original white exterior paint and has a torquoise/white leather interior with A/C and all. I have a bunch of spare parts for both interior and exterior (new seat covers, speakers, etc). It has been used as a daily driver with no concerns. The only issues with the car are a little bit of rust around the wheel wells (driver's side rear being the worse...pictures should show all), a dent on the hood that was straightened out but not repainted (a truck backed into it going a couple miles an hour), the master cylinder for the brakes is a little leaky and makes the pedal a little soft, and the yoke from the driveshaft to the rear axle broke...Easy fix just haven't messed with it.

Motor is a 302 HO
F-cam (512 lift I/E)
Flowtech long-tube headers
Edelbrock RPM intake
600 CFM Edelbrock carb

T5 transmission and 5th gear grinds a little bit if you're really pushing it with a Hurst shifter.

It still has the four lug drum brakes all the way around with generic Pacer wheels.

Car has stupid potentional or can be driven as is...Just ready to move on to something different. Let's start the bids at $4500 I'm ready to sell it off now so I can finish the race car :thumb:
