Estate sale BARN FIND, stored in a barn for over 30 years. In the 1970’s the car was
turned into a custom show car. A 1967 stinger hood replaced the original hood, which is
long gone. The car was painted maroon with a black stinger. Side pipes were added to
give it a 67 big block look and sound. The interior was changed to black to go with the
exterior from dark blue vinyl. All the interior metal trim was chromed, as was most
removable metal under the hood. Not sure exactly when or why the car was parked and
stored as it was an estate sale. We were told around 30 years ago. Today after sitting for
so long, the car has been brought back to life and ready for the restoration it deserves.
