A dream I’ve had since I was 16 has finally come true after 56 years. I am now the proud owner of a ’65 Belvedere II. A very well preserved 2dr h/t with a 426 wedge, 4-speed and wearing its original dark blue finish. Doing maintenance, tuning, tinkering and just getting acquainted with it in general at this time.

I bought the car at ebay auction in August. Details on the car and pictures taken by the seller can be seen at https://www.ebay.com/itm/194266539257. As it has passed through several hands over the years, I’m hoping one or more FBBO members will recognize this car and share any history they know about it with me. It would be of great help to know about any internal engine mods, especially bore, stroke and/or camshaft changes.

Special thanks to FBBO member MoparLeo for encouraging me to throw my hat in the door here, and who’s currently restoring driver’s side door hinges for me. Would like to hear from any FBBO members.
