This is the old 68' VIP I have up here in Newfoundland, Canada.

Its pretty much all original except for the wheels, manifolds and carb.
I swapped the original 15" steel wheels for the magnums. Currently running a Holley on the 383 and swapped out the log manifolds for the hi-po's. Car has A/C, cruise, 6 way drivers power seat with buddy seat and still running the original Budd calipers and rotors up front.

Originally a Texas car, it was purchased in New Brunswick about 12 years ago and brought here by my father...

Car still wears about 1/2 its original paint, completely rust free with 88,000 miles on the clock.

It is a different animal for sure, real businessmans hot rod...

Welcome old friend!!
I remember your 300 well before you sold it.
Good to see you still have the VIP.
If you can remember,I am from Corner Brook and still living in Kingston,Ontario.
I am flying down this summer for the Come Home year celebrations,too.

Just to inform fellow FCBO members,Back in Newfoundland growing up,C bodies were a big seller on the Rock,and always had a big (pun intended) following.
Newfoundland is an island where you will see "boats" on land and sea,LOL!!
