Original paint, and original lettering. Man I wanted this thing! But have nowhere to put it, and no time to go get it before the ad says it has to be gone. Sold for $6100 including fees. Seems like a steal with the history and originality.
One of the vintage pics shows it already lettered, but still running the front factory white wall tires, and with 350HP on the hood. If that was honest at the time, then it was an L79 car. Factory 4-speed hole in a 2-dr post car also screams high performance car when new.
If so, it was one of 203 2-dr post L79's built. Just a tick away from Z16 rarity!
Hopefully the winning bidder does the car justice - fix the roof and the hood, put a correct rubber mat in it, and L79/M20 drivetrain, and take it to the strip!
