Thanks guys for your comments. You are a class act and I value all of your opinions. I fell victim to the shiny paint, the color combination and it being so clean so I paid allot more than what I had budgeted for a car. It has Canadian documentation dated in 2002 so I am going to guess it was restored around that time. There are some things that are wrong and need to be redone but I can do those over time and as the budget allows. From what I went over on Saturday most of the main parts are numbers matching and have the right date codes. The car sounds great with solid lifters but compared to the last big block car I had it feels kind of flat with stock exhaust and it has been pretty sitting around for the last few years. My original plan was to buy a car that was not numbers matching that I could play with and put headers, 3 inch exhaust, hurst shifter and MSD ignition on it. Well my plans have been changed but it is all good.
