Know this car, saw it at the auction, know the owner. He had the original block on a stand at the auction. The Tonowanda stamp and partial VIN are on the eng. stamp pad. Broaching is distinct and part. VIN matches the car's VIN. There is no paperwork on the car. The "meticulous" resto is definitely leaving something to be desired along w/ the aforementioned inaccuracies. I believe it is a real car and was indeed a great buy at that price. i was not in a position to buy as I was putting a car across the block 4 slots later. It needs a complete resto although it is a very solid car. Orig color is glacier blue (code 53) with black top and black standard interior. Not the best color but needs to return to orig state. restored correctly this wld be a fine automobile and indeed rare.
