I bought the car last year and it is now in MN. It was bought new in Perry NY and stayed in western NY until 2019.

You know how some cars just inspire you so damn much you have to hunt down a donor and clone it? ^^^^^^^^

Really?! What makes you think it’s a clone? I have tracked down and talked to 4 past owners including the 76 year old original owner. They all sent me awesome photos. This car is legit!! Unfortunately original engine and trans are gone like most L72 cars.

Sorry, didn't imply this was a clone. I meant the type of lust I have for a car like this has indeed inspired me and some others to build a tribute....it's definitely worthy.

I have quite a few old pictures from the late 60's and the 70's of some of my old muscle
cars such as my, new at the time, 69 copo chevelle, as well as my 68 427 Canadian pontiac ,new at the time, my 67 427 Corvette, 68 427 Corvette, etc. Unfortunately, I am not computer literate and anything different than usual is confusing. I read through the 32 tutorial pages of photo posting and now I will have to go take a nap It doesn't appear this is for the faint of heart if you are in your mid 70's.
