Exterior
Mostly original Light Yellow paint with only a few minor touch ups over the years covers all the sheet metal this car was born with. Nicely preserved chrome and trim, very shiny and mirror-like is noted on the bumpers and all is present and accounted for. The original black padded landau top covers the rear section of the roof and flows down the C pillars to meet the body. Shiny brightwork surrounds the top and is just as nice as when it was installed back in 1979. On the rear of this car are corner wrap-around rectangular taillights surrounded by more brightwork. A cavernous truck provides more space than a 2 bedroom NYC apartment and looks showroom with its black felt mat and space saver spare tire and jack. A multi disc CD changer is also mounted here for your auditory pleasure. 14" Chevrolet RS rally wheels with bright center caps and polished stainless trim rings are wrapped in BF Goodrich raised white letter rubber and give a nice air of distinction.

Interior
A swing of the door and we are met with a back vinyl door panel fashioned with a horizontal tuck and roll pattern that is highlighted by a hockey stick chrome trim spear. A small central plastic panel contains the armrest and a chrome mirror joystick and door handle while black carpet covers the bottom of the door. Black vinyl high back bucket seats showing almost no wear present with more horizontal tuck and roll stitching and smooth bolsters. The rear bench follows suit in material and condition providing room for 3. A black and wood applique console races between the buckets and contains not only a storage bin/arm rest but also has the T-handle shifter sprouting from it and controls for the CD changer. This console swoops up with more wood applique over the standard issue ash receptacle door before ending at the main dash panel. The original GM padded black and applique dash is up front and has the speedometer, fuel gauge, and gear selector position all within. The original AM/FM/Cassette radio sits in the middle of the dash below the A/C & heater controls. This clean and original dash is fronted by the factory tilt steering column which shows with the optional cruise control lever before ending at the sporty black plastic 2 spoke steering wheel. Clean black carpeting covers the floors and is protected by original GM rubber floor mats while a black headliner hangs tightly above.

Drivetrain
A correct and original 305ci V8 is within a nicely detailed original engine bay. Complete with blue Chevrolet block and heads and topped with a 4bbl carburetor this mill is looking almost as good as the day it was built. All hoses are supple and shiny, and all ducting, wiring and vacuum lines are present and accounted for. On the back is a correct TH350 3-speed automatic transmission and a 10-bolt rear axle weighing in with 2.29 gears to round out the drivetrain department.

Undercarriage
A solid steel frame gives the backbone to the rust-free floors, all of which show with undercoating and black paint and some unremarkable surface rust. Independent coil springs are on the front and a 4 link with coil springs round out the suspension. Power disc brakes are noted for the front and power drums are seen on the rear, as is power steering to make driving a breeze. A dual exhaust system with Flowmaster mufflers sends spent fossils to the rear of the car.
