[protree68]

Here is some pictures of a l78 I recently bought I've wanted this car for years finally pulled the trigger. The car has unusual options for a l78 pw and lots of other cool stuff not usually found on l78 cars. It also has a m21 with BU 373 posi .the original motor was pulled in the early 80s to freshen it up. The owner planed to restore the car so he pulled some parts off and there it sat. After buying the car my buddy started looking for the original owner that was on the pop .He found Richard Cadway in Sandiago when you type his name in Google a realtor standing next to his Lexus came up and I thought this is him .Rich was very surprised when I called him up I was more surprised to find out he had all the original dealer invoices order form and window sticker. He told me how he went to village Chevy in New York to buy a Camaro and the salesman Pete Dodds tried to sell him a Copo but he had to have a convert so they special ordered this car he stated "I ordered every option I could get " he then told me how he built a custom luggage rack for the trunk for his road trip he took to Califonia and he even stopped at the plant in Norwood to see the cars birthplace. He said he didn't order better wheels cause he was going to put craigers on it .i wanted to put the car back together and clean it up before posting pictures but I no we all love as found pictures so he we go
