This car originally from Texas and already had a very clean body and floor to start with. The body is painted factory Ermine white with a black insert stripe. The body is nice and straight. New custom interior was done by Sullivan upholstery in New London Ohio and looks great. This car is a fresh build and driven approx 500 miles this past summer in 2016. Engine is a very healthy 331 with alum canfield heads and lunati roller setup and muncie 4 speed with scattershield. Car has a healthy lumpy idle thru the flowmaster 44 exhaust and looks the part sitting on the drag radials. Have had many people ask if it was a 409 or BBC car when pulling into a show.. This car runs, drives, rides and sounds great. CPP Power steering and 3.36 gears makes it a pleasure to drive. Asking $45k.. This is a nice 61 and mostly everything on this car is new. Too many new parts to list.. PM me if you have serious interest.
