That was my car that I sold to Legendary. I had it for a few years it was a good driver car. I found a 69 L/78 later that is a plain jane to.

Is there anything else you can add about the history or details of the car? Do you miss it? Do you find a difference in the power compared to your '69?

This car was first listed for sale on this site on July 15/ 2003. Asking price was $26,500. I'm still kicking myself for not buying it, I remember $25K as being the magic number.A week later the car was at Legendary here in Canada, and the new price was close to $50K. Woulda, shoulda, coulda...

I called LMC about the car and they said the tranny was not original...

is that true?

As I stated in my original post "The tranny is a non-numbers M-20."

Thanks for the clarification...
I meant no harm. Good luck.

No offence taken! I'm just trying to be upfront and honest about the car... I just want to sell it hassle-free, without any surprises for the buyer. All questions will be answered honestly, and if I don't know the answer, I'll find out. As I said earlier, I am open to offers. So if you think the asking price is too high, please feel free to come forward with a reasonable offer. I'm going away for a month in January and I'd like to have it spoken for before I leave. I have no problem keeping it for someone it until spring if need be. I know that I would not want to see it transported on an open trailer in this weather!!

BTW when I bought the car at Legendary, they did not tell me about the incorrect tranny... I discovered it after the fact.

P.S. - It does have a Centreforce clutch in it and "Hooker" headers.
