On the engine tag, it says 67 ? Is that OK?

Ya, and interestingly enough it also came from North Carolina. Must be something in the water back there.:smile:

sold for $37,500. IMO someone got a great bargain.

So from the recent pdf of production features there were only 111 manual transmission S code engines.

That sounds like a special and very desirable combination, at least to me. Maybe it's better to hold out for something really tasty like this one and spend the extra money?

Gotta be the same car, there's only 23 like it.

It must have been a bargain at the auction, the price has really jumped. I guess the secret is to find it before the reseller does.

That's just the asking price. He will negotiate.

I read through their description and they stop short of calling it a numbers matching engine. It's "date code correct", but reading between the lines this car has a replacement 390 engine? Maybe that's what held it back at auction.

The date code correct engine and transmission have been fully overhauled, and equally detailed to show worthy appearance
