Default 74 big block custom/Eckler

Hi everyone:

Newbie here to the forum.

I was wondering if anyone has seen this 74 I built back in the late 80's, and sold in the metro St. Louis area.

Here is a quick list of all that was done to it:
74 matching number 454 auto, with ac, eckler hood, flares, nose, tail, rear spoiler, centerline wheels 10x15 and 12x15 with Yokohama avs tires 285/40 and 345/35, bigger sway bars, urethane suspension with bilsteins, hooker hedder/sidepipes, edelbrock torker intake, crane cam, lamborghini seville red paint, etc...

It was not stock when I purchased it (body mods), I updated, painted, and cleaned up what was started (before the purist's get mad, lol!).

Insane handling with big block power.

Photos are in my "photo album".

If anyone has info, I have the original build sheet, window sticker, all paperwork! Pm me.

Thanks,
Paul

Hi Paul,
You're allowed to post pictures, EVEREYONE is.
You need to upload them to a host like PhotoBucket, then copy the IMG codes into the body of your post, and the pictures will appear.
Regards,
Alan

You can check FAQ on the bar above for guidance, too.

Welcome to the forum, pictures are always nice to see, even if you do not own it anymore, show some and go get yourself another.

Hi:
Wanted to follow up and see if anyone has seen the car?

One lead said it was in Belleville, Illinois.

Thanks,
