I was told by a previous owner my car was parked in an Ohio barn in 1983 and hasn't been driven since. Well, the last plate on the car now confirms this. This explains why although crusty, the car remained fairly untouched.

Tom Jenkins also confirmed the car did have a junk small block and muncie (not the born with trans). This means the original transmission was removed from the car from either "Tom" Rooker 5th owner or Judy Stevens (Rooker) 6th owner. Buckley (4th owner) states the car was sold sans a 400 small block with the muncie tied up to the car. The first 4 owners state the muncie wasn't changed under their ownership. The car sold to Rooker with a bad steering box. This explains the 69 box with the fast ratio arm on the car today. The 69 fast ratio arm is identical to a stock 67 pitman arm length at 5.8".
