Sold for $6600.

If I knew about this, I would pluck that Brit block out of there, pop in a BBC and drive the paint off it!  (but I'm weird).

I had a customer once, who had a silver one with a 454 /th400 in it.

I'd love to have one with a 5.3l in it, mild performance but more focused on reliability.  I thought, though, it wasn't the engines that were necessarily bad, but the hydraulics that ran both the brakes and suspension?  Wonder how difficult a swap to some type of coilover system and aftermarket brakes would be....

That would be a beautiful cruiser, that was such a deal!

Yeah, and the electrical system weren't much to brag about either....

I want one for one simple reason.
The window regulators are CHAIN DRIVEN. I just imagine the sound of a medieval portcullis every time you put the windows up or down.
