GLWS of DH46J4D226622 ! Do I see correctly that the master cylinder and muffler are new? Great if they are.

Yes, master cylinder, front brake rotors, pads, muffler, heater control valve and transmission is freshly rebuilt. Needs a few things like turn signal switch. They work but you have to hold the level in place, a few oil drips but overall ready to drive anywhere!

And I forgot to mention the fuel sending unit is new also.

I was driving it around on Friday and it developed a hard starting when warm problem. Carburetor has a case of VD (Venturi Drip) So it will also have a rebuilt Carb. My rebuild guy will have it done by Tuesday he says.

Chris, I really like this, my Uncle had the almost identical car, in dk green, 440 and the split seats, bought new in '74 but traded on a Volare (!!) in '77 because my Aunt thought it was too big and it got 10 mpg during those gas shortage days :-(.
I'm going to put my nr mint '69 Cutlass Holiday Sedan from rust free OK up for sale ands see what happens.

Seems like most '70s cars suffered from that deteriorating & crumbling of hard molded plastic interior panels due to sun exposure, does anyone know a way to resurface it? SEM makes an excellent spray to duplicate the color but it has to be put over a good surface.

BTW their other car at the time was a gold '73 Polara 4 dr hardtop 318 with dk green vinyl interior, they kept that one for some years and it was eventually handed down to my cousin, of course I really liked that one too. They were the only family members who ever had Mopars.

Yeah Roger the panels have a chalkiness on top but are solid underneath. You should be able to sand it off and refinish them. I will see if I can try a small area and see.
