There’s something to be said about day-two authenticity. This 300 Deluxe Post Sedan SS received a very stout 427 along with the L88 style hood and numerous other performance modifications by the original owner in the early 70’s. Even the tires are still the originals that he put on these torq thrusts back when the car was new.

This one gets my vote...... but what about your L89 car?

Thanks Ryan! Technically, the L89 modifications were done at the dealership. Other than the wheels, tires and stance... the performance mods aren’t noticeable until you pop the hood... or until you drive it ;-)

Go the extra mile and find a pic taken back in the day for the cover, not a new digital photo of a restored Day 2 car. That's just my 2 cents...this one showed up tonight on the 70s MuscleCars facebook page
