An acquaintance in our local PCA club emailed some pics of a supposed factory 6 a family is trying to sell after the death of the long term owner. I'm no expert, but if a 6 (and the VIN looks right) it looks like it has a 75/76 front clip on it. I'm supposed to get a write up from the son explaining the history. The goal at this point is to educate the family more about what they have and potential value. The front of the car is a bit of a mess.
Any advice on what to look for in terms of verifying what this thing is? I've suggested they look for the VIN stamping in the rear trunk floor, the plaque in the front trunk looks to be gone or painted over. I've not seen any engine pics yet. ![]() ![]() |

The gas tank bulkhead has a '75-'76 body tag and fuel pump access hole.
Not a good sign. Lets see the stamped in 914 043 0505 in the righr front wheel house. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) If there is anything other than 9140430505 in the right front fender, it is no longer that car. The vin tag on the windshield is easy to change. The compliance sticker is easy to reproduce. The stamped number is the car, at least according to Texas law. Clay |
