Default 68 SS vert 3000 mi BIG survivor

Local car show in Water Mill. I didn't feel like taking pictures until I saw this rarely out of the barn local legendary vehicle.

The owner did NOT want to open the hood. He told me the battery had been replaced and I had to promise not to look. ( or photograph it)

Wow that's pretty incredible! Where did you view this car? I'd love to check some details out on it for my restoration. Do you know if the interior is original?

The interior is orginal, only the drivers floor mat is worn. Little old lady wore sharp high heels to church on sunday. Never driven in rain. I know both owners, first one has passed on, current owner has had it for 18 years. I tried to convince him to "big-block" it a few years back! Let me know what you need pictures of before he wraps it up for the winter.

Looks like there were 20 points deducted for not having the "Caution Fan" sticker

Steve, I finally got over there on a sunny dry day. He will NOT bring it out if the air is moist .
This car is completely untouched original, except oil. Tires original, spare never unscrewed.

90 picsright here!

I will PM you the VIN
