When I got this car it was in really bad shape and it had some work done but I cannot be responsible for that work, the welding of the side motor mounts and the brackets for the transmission are not my handy work. Again I have driven the car with no problems but since I did not do the welding I just want it known. The motor and transmission sit level and I have had a load on it so the mounts do seem fine.

Yes it runs yes you can drive it. but it would I take it on a long trip, probably not because it has never had a good long shake down trip,but then again you may be able to drive it across the USA who knows.

Let me start by saying I have been working on the car for over 6 years now so when I say new parts they are anywhere from 1 to 6 years old but there were new when installed. This car has less the 600 miles on it since I got it back on the road.

If the parts were re-manufactured and not new I will say so

If I installed used parts I will also say so.

So please remember all the work that has been done has been done over a 6 year period so new may mean, new 4 years ago or 5 years etc.

But the car has never been driven more then to a few local car shows and test drives.

Ok I will start with the things that are NOT DONE or NEED COMPLETION

1. It needs a complete interior it has seats with seat covers and some cheap carpet but nothing much other than that.

2. It needs a little body work done. There are some holes on the metal the goes between the rear bumper, the trunk also has some holes in it.

3. The brakes need adjustment everything has been replaced but it needs adjusted.

4. The Saginaw 4 speed transmission sometimes is hard shifting into 3rd gear and 3rd gear only it is not the shifter I think it has a bad synchronizer but I'm not positive.

5. Most of the glass, side’s rear, and front are not very good and should be replaced.

6. It has no grille and the chrome is not in the best condition again drivable looks ok but not great.

7. The horn does not work (not hooked up I do not know if it even works)

8. It was a factory 6 cyl 3 speed on the column car.

9. It has No radio and needs a new battery

10. It has no heater (core is there) but nothing is hooked up.

11. Even the good aftermarket chrome will need a good cleaning from sitting. I do start the car monthly and drive around the bock to keep it from drying out the seal etc. rear bumper painted front bumper fair to poor condition

12. Wiper motor not hooked up it May or may not work I'm not sure, no switch or blades or wiper arms

13. It needs a going over and has some nuts and bolts that need tightened.

14. The transmission cross member came with the car it appears to be homemade and should be checked as far as the welding it was not done by me it seems fine and it has given me no problems.

OK Now the Good.

1. It has a Brand new summit GM 350 engine (not rebuilt) with a new summit brand tunnel ram and two new 450 carburetors ,a new water pump, new starter, new chrome valve covers, new chrome timing gear cover, new black oil pan, new copper header gaskets, used headers, new cherry bomb mufflers, new points ,condenser, distributor cap and wires, two dip sticks one left one right. new electric fuel pump. New summit brand scoop. New side motor mounts welded in but not by me may need to be checked. I have driven the car with no problems but I did not weld them.

2. New master cylinder

3. New power brake booster and brake drums

4. re-manufactured brake shoes, and wheel cylinders

5. It has a 1978 used corvette bell housing with New hydraulic slave cylinder (it has some ground out parts in the bell housing around the area where the clutch fork is) but it does not affect it mechanically it works great.

6. New wilwood floor mounted clutch pedal and new master cylinder

7. New pressure plate, throw out bearing and re-manufactured clutch, rebuilt Hurst shifter all new bushings etc.

8. New wiring harness (with the new style small blade fuses) new custom off on ignition switch with secret kill button

12. All new rocker panels left and right and smoothed out with body filler

13. New driver’s side partial rear quarter panel installed and passenger side repaired and smoothed out with body filler

14. Both front fenders replaced used NOT NEW.

15. New sheet steel floors welded in NOT OEM floors 4x8 sheet steel bent and welded in.

16. New aftermarket power window motors partially installed needs completion

17. Shaved door handles and new aftermarket remote door openers and poppers both left and right.

18. New summit fuel cell in trunk with hold down straps (needs to be finished not completely bolted down)

19. 4 new cargar mags with a set 4 locking lugs (need good cleaning)

20. New tires all the way around

 I forgot it is missing the chrome that goes around the rear window
and the rear small windows go up and down but they seem like they are off the track or something...

will add it here.. and if you want to stop by and here it run let me know. I live about 15 miles from Baltimore MD

              OK  I already have numerous emails asking how much is the reserve.
                
                        Here is the deal like I said I wont tell anyone the reserve
As I said in the ad including the purchase price of the car I have well over $14,000 in the car
                              Not including my labor which is 100s of hours.
                  I know I wont get that money back but I also wont give it away.
I have over $7,000 in just the engine,tunnel ram, carburetors, tire and rims
not to include the the car it self and the tons of other stuff it has.
                                Anyone who works with old cars knows this..
  So think about it when bidding. Like I said I'm not going to make any money on the car and I know I     wont even break even but I wont give it away either so please please don't ask the reserve....
Thanks
Clayton

            Go to       www.picturetrail.com/clay5769      For lots of pictures

        Of how the car was when I got it and all the work I have done.

Wiper motor not on car.. sorry about that. I'm not sure if I still have it

but like I said any and all 57 parts I have new old and taken off the car will go with the car to the winning bidder

To answer some of the questions I have gotten

THE FLAT BLACK PICTURES ON EBAY WITH THE TUNNEL RAM AND SCOOP ARE OF THE CAR AS IT SITS RIGHT NOW.

AND AS I STATED IN THE AD I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THE CAR FOR OVER SIX YEARS AND SOME OF THE NEW PARTS ARE ANY WHERE FROM 1 TO 6 YEARS OLD  AS STATED IN THE EBAY AD

WHEN THE PARTS WERE INSTALLED THERE WERE NEW.  1 TO 6 YEARS AGO.

ALSO AS I STATED IN THE AD A LOT OF THE CHROME THAT WAS INSTALLED WILL NEED CLEANING . THIS IS BECAUSE OF HOW LONG THIS PROJECT HAS TAKEN  (6 YEARS)

I USE THE TERM NEW SO EVERYONE UNDERSTANDS THAT I DIDNT PUT USED PARTS ON THE CAR, I ALSO USED THE TERM REMANUFACTURED THOSE PARTS ARE ALSO ANY WHERE FROM 1 TO 6 YEARS OLD NOW.

SOMETHING THAT MAY NOT LOOK NEW WAS NEW WHEN INSTALLED IT 1 TO 6 YEARS AGO.  BUT AS I STATE MANY TIMES THIS HAS BEEN A ONGOING PROJET FOR OVER 6 YEARS.

I ONLY USE THE TERM NEW SO EVERYONE KNOWS THAT I DIDNT INSTALL USED PARTS.

       I HOPE THIS CLEARS EVERYTHING UP SORRY FOR ANY CONFUSION

the website pictures are some what confusing, the pictures of the car in blue paint and brown fenders and the silver rear quarter panels are the beginning of the repairs to the car. the pictures show the different things I have done to the car. some pictures show the car white, some show gray, some show a single 4bbl carb, some show a tunnel ram and two 4bbl carbs,some show two air cleaners, 

the pictures on the website are only to show all the different stages of repairs and also the different looks of the car.

SOME  OF THE PICTURES ON EBAY SHOW 2 SINGLE AIR CLEANERS.

THESE HAVE BEEN REMOVED

IT THE SCOOP ON NOW.

IT IS THE SAME TUNNEL RAM WITH 2 CARBS IN ALL THE EBAY PICTURES IT IS JUST DIFFERENT AIR CLEANERS.

THE PICTURES OF THE INTAKE WITH THE SCOOP IS AS THE CAR SITS RIGHT NOW

IT NEEDS A GOOD CLEANING THERE ARE LEAFS AND STUFF ON INTAKE IN PICTURES.
