Triple black, 35K original miles. Unrestored original with work I’ve been doing on it while driving. 360 w/4 bbl conversion & Edelbrock carb and dual exhaust done before I bought it. New vinyl roof, window seals, trunk seal, trunk mat, master cylinder, front brakes, KYB shocks all around, u-joints, new tires on CMX wheels, rear speakers, replaced dash pad with excellent condition donor pad, A/C works great (R134 converted before I bought it), cruise works great, AM/FM stereo works great. Everything works- drive it anywhere. The car had the floor cassette option which was removed before I bought it. I have a correct pigtail radio (not working) connecting cord, most of the floor console parts, and the cassette deck (not working) which could be included with the car. The radio that’s in the car doesn’t have the pigtail and works great. I installed it without hacking up the wiring. The underside and stub frames are solid as a rock.
The negatives - The car can use paint work on the top surfaces and left front fenderIt looks like maybe stains from sap at one time messed up the paint. There is minor rust behind the passenger rear tire, rear valence, and some bubbles on the lower fender behind the left front tire, as shown in the pictures.

Thank you for posting. Do you have photos of the engine bay, including the fender tag?
 
I have a line on one that I want to get 3D printed. If I can get several made I will let you know.
 
No real issues. I’ve owned it about 6 years and have put about 8K miles on it. I’ve taken it to Carlisle from the Cleveland area 3 or 4 times. I’ve taken it to the NATS at least 3 times also. A joy to drive.
 
If I were to keep the car I would eventually paint the the top of the car from body side molding to body side molding and touch up the left front fender.
 
Kind of a storied past. The car came out of Southern Virginia and was originally bought by a mopar service tech. His garage was below the house. One night he got drunk and started shooting the place up. One of the shots went through the floor and hit the hood and left a pretty good rounded divot in the hood. After he died the estate parked it outside under a tree. The sap from the tree stained the paint and caused it to fleck. I’ve kept it waxed and sealed to prevent any serious rust but it will eventually need painted. I can find no bodywork on the car but the paint on the drivers fender was touched up at some point many years ago. My guess is the guy scraped something like shrubbery that didn’t dent the car but scraped the paint.
 
I like the triple black! Does look pretty solid!
Thank you. Very hard to find. I’ll send you the 3 spots that will eventually need addressed. Right 1/4 panel just behind the tire, rear valence right side, bottom of left fender just ahead of the door. Perforations but not total rust out. The floor pans and stub frames are solid as a rock.
