Absolutely beautiful. My kind of car, just a little more than I wanted to spend.

Could you explain what you mean when you call the car a "survivor"?

maybe there was nuclear blast nearby and the car was unscathed?

Survivors are cars that "Bubba" hasn't worked on yet?

Nice car. But with all do respect, some one took the original grill off and replaced it with a 66-67.

I think it is great that people point things out so that a potential buyer is well informed. It's not that correcting the problem is a big deal rather it is just something to consider.

The rear spring is a non original replacement.

It is a nice combo car.

65 grill is a one year only grill.

Cheaper to replace it with a 66 grill

The real question is why was the grill replaced in the first place?
