Chassis no. U15GLU44778. Brown metallic with white top over white vinyl. 302-cid, 145hp 2-barrel, column shift 3-speed manual, wheel covers, narrow whitewalls, rear-mounted spare wheel, original AM radio with hidden FM controls.

Evaluation: Body-off restored. Fresh, fully redone engine with new bottles, hoses, wires, and belts. Spotless underbody. Fresh, high-quality paint. Glass looks new. Fresh interior with restored gauges and new upholstery. A stunner—much too clean to take off road. 

Bottom Line: Offered on Bring a Trailer in October but went unsold at a $57,500 high bid. It turns out there was more enthusiasm and more money in the seats at the NRG Center than on the World Wide Web. The price it brought in Houston is huge but, given the quality of the restoration, wasn’t surprising.
