Only 2161 units were built that year. This is a second owner car that has been in storage since 1988. It has it’s original matching numbers 455 V-8 4 bbl auto trans, etc.I even have the factory build sheet. It is a fully loaded car . All power , ac, windows, doors, locks , 6 way power seat, tilt wheel, am-fm sterio , power trunk, and so on.Every thing still works. The car has 65000 original miles, Unfortunately from sitting so long the years have taken it’s toll. The body has rust issues as you can see from the pics. The frame is still solid front to back but has pitting from being in the grass. For the most part the under side is solid with the exception of a couple of holes on both back floor pans. Trunk pan , rocker panels and braces are all solid. If somebody wanted to do a quick patch up you could clean it up and make it presentable. I have seen far worse fixed . I think the car would be best suited as a doner car for a more solid bodied Centurion. Or use the hard to find running gear . Great donor motor and trans for a Skylark or Riviera . Also the interior is in near perfect condition if you had to upholster one of these cars you can just imagine the cost. Dash is in perfect condition all convertible top bows are in good shape. Just a treasure trove of great parts. As far as the running gear is concerned I oiled up all the cylinders before trying to start it . I put in a set of new plugs and cleaned the points . I used a boat tank for a fresh fuel source. It fired right up . I will tell you one thing this is one nice running big block. Transmission goes right into gear .
