Bruce,

I am awaiting a call from a previous owner. I know the car was flipped twice in 2020. The owner who stored the car at John's Fuel Injection Service in Paramount traveled a ton. John had passed away (2020) after his battle with cancer. The shop was then cleaned out and the car was sold. It is speculated that owner was the son of the original owner. I'll post updates on that as I get them.

The car was originally sold at Hovey-Dallas Chevrolet Gardena, CA

----Great find! Was the car ordered with KO's? I noticed one pic with a rally wheel. I also saw what appears to be the original 375hp decal on the valve cover. Amazing that it has survived. Do you think you can bring the paint back at all?......Bill S

Bill,

The car does not have the decal by the jacking instructions, so I suspect not original to the car. They are original wheels though.

I was playing with some #7 on the paint. There may be some life left there.

Tim, I'm glad that cosmetically you're not going to do anything to the car. I hope to see it someday.

Wow! Nice car. Was this car on the Los Angeles Craigslist a few months ago?

Great find. Looks like it has had the FI unit replaced with a 65 7017380 unit?

It's a 7380, but it appears to be the original as the VIN is stamped in the plenum. It does have some updates on the unit.
