I can put a Buy-It-Now on this auction if we can make a deal before the auction ends.

I purchased this car 3 weeks ago from a dear friend of mine's mother who is the widow of the ORIGINAL OWNER. This is a 1 owner car not counting me. Sold new at Roy Buckner Chevrolet in Bessemer, Al. ( Near Birmingham )He lived in Hueytown where the Nascar "Alabama Gang" lived and raced. The selling dealer logo sticker is still on the back of this car!

Its original owner was going to start a restoration on it about 5 years ago, got sick and could not do it. He had taken the original engine out and put it on an engine stand, that is all he got done. See Photo: I will set the engine back in the car to make it easier to transport for the new buyer. It will not run. We did take the pan off and the motor is just great, turns over easy, 4 bolt mains in place, oil tray is with the car in one of the boxes. I have boxes of the original parts that will go with it. Please look at the photos. A few of the photos are when I first looked at it at her house, hence the dirt and blown out front tires still in place. We did wash the outside, pressure washed the bottom and engine compartment only to kill all the spiders, insect nest, etc. It actually was a clean as the photos show!

It is amazing that any of these cars are still sitting in someone's garage today. I call it a barn find, but actually it was in his garage. I have all the original glove box paperwork, P.O.P. included with a few Alabama tag receipts from the 90's with his nameon them also.

Important Numbers :::

Tank Sticker is still on the tank! I got a scope and looked down by the gas cap, it is there just could not read it. The black painted LT1 stripes on the hood are the originals also and you can still see the imprint where the LT1 decals were in between the stripes, they just wore off.

I have so many parts that go with this car, the alternator and starter are not the originals, I am sure they wore out in the 80's and were replaced. I have clutch, plate, shielding, original radiator with the original foam still glued to the top which A/C cars had, 2 more Holley carbs, bolts, brackets, original A/C condenser, etc. I know I have many other parts just can't remember them all.Being an ordered car going to Alabama I am not sure if it hadsmog or not. I do not have that. Exhaust manifolds have plugs.
