Description:
A 2 owner Idaho survivor car, all original, believed to be 90k original miles and has been in Meridian ID since 1963. It was originally purchased in Seattle then sold in 1963 to a Meridian ID man to send his daughter to College at Idaho State University in Pocatello. She kept the car after school and the dad transferred title to her now husband name in 1968. The title is a 1968 Idaho Golden Rod title. Paint, seats, top, carpet, door panels, engine and transmission are all original. The engine was rebuilt in 1990 and then was put in storage and sat until 2014. The car runs and drives excellent I have had it on the freeway at speed many times as well as around town the car performs well. The power top works, all the windows and window regulators work very smoothly as well as the doors don't sag and shut smooth tight. The car is just a great example of a survivor. I did some safety and maintenance work to the car but wanted to keep the purity of a true classic and not change any of the authenticity of the car. You will get a lot of looks in this vehicle, everybody loves the lines and the uniqueness of this car.
The car is equipped with the slant 195 cu. in. 4cyl. (some know it as the half of a 389) with the two speed transmission.
the car will come with the original owners manual with all of the hand written notes on timing, dwell, compression, and spark plugs.
