It's a two door post RR, 383, 4-speed, 3:23 sure grip. Black on black, AM radio. That covers the basics without going to a decoder.

How about this. Car has sat since late 70's I believe.
 
The writing and correct me if I'm wrong wouldn't it be from the assembly line. If so that's pretty cool looks like red line 70 tires

My old eyes deceive me. I mistook EE1 for BB1, but should have known that the B on the interior code was Blue. Thanks
 
What do you value this car at I'm thinking of buying. I have an agreed price and it's not listed for sale anywhere. Been sitting since late 70's in storage. He's not sure if original but probably has original 4 speed. Only rust is light bubbling in pic. Seats have original covers under the seat cover. Hard to find one like this. Even if engine isn't original still sweet find. He's gonna see if he can get a look at block next weekend. Looks like a u molested car in a time capsule

Not sure on value.. 12-15k?

Kinda sucks if they drilled that hood pin right into the rad support #s

I think it's an awesome find.

That would be a decent price, but sometimes people overvalue some things. Sucks about the mickey mouse hood pin posts.
 
Car painted wrong color
Hood pins added
Hood emblem gone
Has a 26” radiator (was a 22” originally)
Drivers exhaust manifold looks like a log manifold, (has engine been swapped?)
Radio gone
Inland shifter missing the reverse lockout lever.

Was this a California car when new? That is the only reason for that aircleaner on this car.

Does it have a reverse lamp on the dash to the right of the steering column?

Not picking on the car, but all these things affect value. Engine/trans is a big one for value to know if original or swapped.

Cool car, Looks like a good straight car. I like it!

Yeah not sure why they did hood pins like that but could be reversed easy. I'm not really looking for a numbers matching car that would just be icing on the cake. Car was built at Lynch Rd and has been in Texas since the mid to late 70's . It's kind of weird that car would painted different color if it has sat since late 70's ..deck lid underside and trunk look to be correct color ..

As a new owner & with winter bad weather, I just really took notice of this in my trunk a couple days ago. Similar to yours. I'd say you may be correct. My trunk/jambs etc have never been resprayed.

Per my fender tag: TIRES: 7.75 x 14 Red Streak Tires
