SELLER DESCRIPTION (Abbreviated -- more detail is in the listing)
SELLER DESCRIPTION (Abbreviated -- more detail is in the listing)
Everything in the car works with the exception of the clock and wipers. Yeah, I know, weird. Of all the things, the wipers.
... ar has exactly 78,251 miles on it at this moment and it runs, drives and stops as though it has even less than that. This car is quiet and all you hear is the low rumble of the 360 HP 383-4bbl with factory dual exhaust. No squeaks or rattles. This is a solid car with supple bushings in all areas of the suspension and steering.
The engine runs awesomely with absolutely no issues and no leaks. It burns NO oil. Compression is consistent in all cylinders and there's no smoke, ever. ... Factory posi rear. The transmission is the factory heavy-duty 727
Everything about this car is consistent with a 78K miles (or less) car. It has had one high-quality, professional repaint in the original color one year ago. The body is perfectly straight all over. There are no dings, scratches or chips anywhere.
.. The paint shines like brand new. All of the stainless trim on the car is either flawless or 99% flawless and shines like new .. All windows are chip and crack-free. The bumpers are excellent! The rear is original to the car and shows almost no signs of age.
,.. The original front bumper had peeling, so I replaced it with the most amazing original chrome Newport bumper imaginable. The grille and all emblems are perfect. The rear trim panel below the trunk is 99% perfect with one small ding on the right half. The glass over the headlights is perfect.
The interior is 100% original. Nothing has been repaired or replaced and it is in amazing condition. All of the upholstery and panels in the car are perfect with the exception of the driver's seat, which has a few seam splits. No fading at all on the upholstery. The dash pad is 100% mint perfect. All of the chrome on the interior is shockingly perfect!
The carpet looks great in all areas except under the driver's feet where there's a worn spot. No stains or fading. Ash trays appear unused and there are no funky smells in the car. There is a vintage 1960's aftermarket air conditioning unit that works. Everything works including both blinker cancellors.
..the headliner is perfect, as are the visors. The steering wheel is mint in every way. The chrome horn ring and center look awesome and the transluscent, body-color steering wheel has no imperfections.
This car has been stored in a garage all of it's life,. Never any rust. The original trunk mat (carpet) is still fully intact but the rubber underside has dried and cracked off.
.. The original spare is included with the car, but I removed it for the pics. The original jack and all equipment is still there, locked into it's intended place. Jack instructions remain under the trunk lid. All four hubcaps are 99% perfect and shine great.

Oh I find two things that should be mended in those photos: somebody should tell the vendor that this is a car that is supposed to be driven wearing chinos with sharp creases, and fine leather shoes. Those bleak naked legs look ghastly.
The car is perfect.

Do you think that is pink silver or some other color?
I would also like it better with factory a/c and if it were a 300L, too. But a beautiful car for someone even if the narrative is a little over the top.

I was lucky to be a passenger in a 300L many years ago, to this day, that was the quietest and smoothest car I've ever been in, better than the '73 Imperial. If the non-letter 300s are as good then this car represents good value and it's so clean!

The fact that it isn't red or white and the non black interior makes it special.
And i 'd rather have no a/c than the hang on unit. But i'm only driving it in nice weather to shows.

Doncha just love these Chevy guys? Its got positraction and a 360 horse 383. Sure would like to see the fender tag and / or the build sheet on this car. It might even have the optional 360 HP 413, but the Chevy guy would never know. . .
