I turned my friend here in Auburn onto that car, he loves it. It's a very rare combo with the bench seat (that's a late production offering) combined the 428HO and factory triple black. I doubt there's another one like it. We looked into the power seat deal, no evidence of the special welded brackets on the floor so it must have slipped through without it. Another strange thing is that it was sold new with standard steel wheels and hubcaps, but shows Rally II's on the invoice. The car did sit on the lot for several months before being sold so possibly a wheel swap was done for another buyer of a different car? It's a great car, runs and drives excellent. Car was originally for sale in Lodi, CA around 2011 by the original owner's family. There was no mention of it being an HO so I never did go look at it... DOH!
