Posted some more photos. Before and after removing undercoating. The floors in the car are in great shape. Also, a few pics from Kenny when I got the car from him. (The PA plate and Ammon Smith plate do NOT go with the car.) Will post some more photos soon. Link to photos..

If anyone can or would link the photos direct to this ad, I would appreciate it. Just never had luck doing it myself. Thanks!

I've driven this car lots and the only problem with it is that it has a personality issue. It truly thinks it's a big block once it hits 4,500 RPM. The thing runs like a big block with those headers. I've never driven a Z with so much power in stock form.

I remember the Jenkins Strickler cars well. They raced out here in the mid west a lot during the mid and late 1960s. No one could best them and did they draw a crowd.
