Nice save! I'm sure it has a long list of "issues" but it looks way too clean to crush. Did it come with a title?

Its basically complete, someone stole the A/C off of it. The only option it doesn't have is a 383, other than that they checked all the boxes.

Power steering will be a nice touch especially if it doesn't leak.

If all it's missing is the underhood a/c stuff, that's easily replaced especially if your not a numbers and correct overspray guy. grin

Thank you for the save! I have been lusting after one of those for decades. I just sold 3 1970 Sweptlines, just didn't trip my trigger because they weren't Dudes!

Nice save. up My uncle had a '70 (not a Dude) that was pretty sharp.
I know where one similar is/was (not sure if it's a Dude) backed into a shed. It wasn't far from my old stomping grounds but we moved further north back in '12 so I don't know if it's still there.. I keep saying I'm going back down there and see. shruggy
