Mid eighties is when I found out about that car. Guys I worked with a few years younger than me hung out with the owners son or nephew. Said he had an original AC Cobra also.

I remember Gomer! Wow, blast from the past.

Your friend Skeeter, or Cooter? who found the car said that the original owner drove it home from the dealership and parked it in his garage to race prep it and he only got as far as removing the smog system, but it was still present sitting on a shelf in the garage. I believe there was a low miles Biscayne in the garage as well.

Why does the build sheet they show in the video have C08 Vinyl Top listed?

Default Build sheet

Great question and also lists an M22 HD 4-Spd Trans. Either build sheet is not from this car or narrator didn’t do his homework

The “Brother’s Collection” Red Hardtop, sub 50 miles the last time I had seen it, is not a vinyl top, m22 car.

Are you suggesting there are two 1970 LS6 SS Chevelles, each with less than 50 miles?
