-Rear window had some rust on the upper driverside corner, removes all old weather stripping treated rust with rust mort, painted inside the grooves with por 15 resealed and put chrome back on, chrome does not sit flush as per the repair, had to clear silicone around the rear window as well.

-Trunk repaired with trunk extension and some holes that were in the trunk were fiber glassed, The trunk does still leak but I have the new trunk seal.

-Firewall did have some minor holes in it cut and patched with gorilla hair.

- Where the heater core box connects to the corner side of the firewall on the passenger side was rusted and needed to cut a small piece out, it is currently sealed up and there is no piece connecting from the firewall to the heater core box where outside air would normally rush in. The heat works great as well as the defogger.

- It also has a small hi torque starter

- It does leak a small amount of oil after the car has been ran for a while, maybe a few drips, oil level has not gone done and pressure is always around 60

- It does not have a full exhaust. I have some flex pipe running off of the headers into glasspacks with turn downs.

-Manual Choke cable for carburetor

- The transmission needs a bigger stall convertor to really feel the power after the engine modifications.

- Also the rearend has the original highway gears 2.96 I believe, will most likely benefit from installing higher gears(3.55 etc...)

- The speedometer is off but I have a new speedometer cable.

- All the lights work, blinkers, brake lights, reverse lights(Reverse lights are hooked up to a switch, but I still have the steering column piece)

- Also I have a set of fuses and extra bulbs.

-Has original bumper jack and has a spare but the spare needs a new tire but the tires on the car are brand new cooper cobra 225 70 14.

-I am including all of the chrome which is not on the car, the head liner metal rods and any other parts I can find that I have that were not used.

- The car starts up and drives with no problems, the car will need body work, some electrical for the gauge cluster and radio.

-The car is being sold AS-IS
