Is there anyone out there That knows the story on the drivetrain? I am interested in buying this car and Flemings Garage is telling me that it IS the BORN WITH drivetrain. I am skeptical with the paperwork ... Please either post on here or PM me any info. THANKS

Assume it is NOT orig drivetrain per previous posts. If orig drivetrain is important you will probably want to look elsewhere or better yet, let us know what you are looking for in a separate post "cars wanted" and you'd be surprised by the inputs you'll get.

I just spoke with Jerry McNeish He stated it is NOT the original drivetrain as represented by Flemings Garage. and he personally knows the car well.

Would have been alot easier for you if it said non original drivetrain years ago.

Charley, Im not familiar with the originality of the car, docs or paperwork. But basing everything on the ONE page desrcription with Flemings ad, the words "not equipped with the complete original drivetrain" could certainly mean that the trans or rear are incorrect and it is still therefore without the complete original drivetrain . The word "complete" adds a new dynamic to the above statement.

According to Flemings Garage THEY claim it IS the born with motor,Trans and rear They told me that Jerrys wording means "the internals of the engine are not the original parts" Jerry tells me the original drivetrain is and has been long gone.

You should suggest they call Jerry before their misinformation costs them a lot of money

This is definately a car youd want to hire an expert to look at with you if you are serious in buying. You dont seem to be getting any good info from the seller and there is no documentation as to if the real expensive parts are there, or if they are replacement items etc. Distributor,carb, alternator could set you back several thousands alone. Get it looked at to get a better detailed description of the components . Good Luck
