Top down, 289, 4-speed Comet. Barn fresh with solid, straight body. Engine is 289 4V Holley with 4-speed Hurst shifter. Originally C-Code 289 2V with C4 automatic, power steering and factory AM radio. New ignition switch and key cylinder. Aluminum Edelbrock intake, Cobra valve covers, good dual exhaust, good headers, large 1-inch front sway bar, 8-inch rear and nice interior. Top works as does lights, wipers, blinkers and heater fan. 289 Motor sounds beautiful with good oil pressure and no smoke. I flushed the old gas and drove this car today. All gears engaged smoothly. Clutch pedal sticks and so does the throttle so needs some love but solid car with much of the hard work done. Brakes are locked up from sitting, but drivable to load on trailer. Steering feels good. Nice glass. Tastefully restored and put away for years. Doors close good. Body looks good except minor rust driver rear quarter (see video). Cowl leaks some water. Everything works except AM radio and horn. Passenger door panel sticks when you open that door. Nice hotrod that needs cleaning and love. Ready for new owner and fun. Sold as is. Call for more info Rick (301) 779-0114.
