Hi Mark

Its a basic 340
The guy I picked the car up from had the engine repainted (wish he would have left it alone)
I saw photos and it looked pretty cool with the original paint wear.

Its numbers matching except the Transmission
I have the warranty paperwork, it was replaced in 71. The original owner had to pay a $25 deductible for the new transmission.
The radiator was also replaced, not sure when.
When I bought the car it had a 74 dated rad. I put the correct radiator in the car a few months ago.
Car has 85,000 miles on it.

Photos look good, but a lot of door dings and light spots, but still very presentable.
Interior is perfect

I agree with the above poster. This car did not sit outside much.
Vinyl top is perfect.

Its an Automatic, non rallye dash car.
3.23 Suregrip
Factory 15 Rallye Wheels
Lot of the chrome trim options.

Solid driving car.

Looking forward to spending some time over here.

Thanks
Matt

Great find.  Excellent example of an A66 car in a rare color.

(I have an A66 convertible that I am currently working on)

 Small block 340's are neat cars!

Good luck with the car.  It looks great!
