I'll have to get better photos. My GF bought this car in Winston Salem, NC in January 1964. After my GM quit driving I got it while I was in college in 1982. I drove as my car for 4 years until an engine mount cracked off the block. So it sat for 20 years until I found a guy who could weld it on. I had the engine gone through at that time. Not much to do but pistons and valves. Put a different cam in but I can't really tell the difference.

Greetings from northern Michigan.
What a nice hand-me-down. I only ever got old, beat up coats and jeans from my uncles.

Welcome aboard JP!! That Newport looks like it has seen a lot of love. Original paint? Bet granny liked that 361.

So I thought this was a B body? Is that not correct?
