Sadly he things the TRIM 427 number for gunmetal grey interior means his car is a 427 Big Block Tri power car. Also most of the info he lists is based off of what someone told him...And you wonder why Gas Monkey has not gotten back to him
Is it worth telling him the truth about his car? What do you think?

Just in case it slipped past unnoticed, the consecutive unit number is very low if that floats anyone's boat.

I'm trying to figure out exactly what is SOOOOO out of whack that the tops don't even come close to fitting.

Its been sitting for 10 years. It looks like it has been sitting outside for 10 years. Can you tell if the interior shot has any floors? Or are we looking at the dirt under the car. How much rust do you think this thing has on it.

That year would have a fiberglass floor pan, but I agree, the pictures are more than a year old, and I bet it hasn't been inside for years.
