I have started doing some minor body work so the rear left quarter panel is no longer blue, the chrome is in great shape, original steel wheels. It isn't really a cruiser, I was building it with the intention to road race in the vintage class with SCCA. If you're not careful, you WILL spin out, but its very fun. I had the engine build by Reynolds Machine in Bakersfield. I've spent about 10,000 on the engine work/ parts alone and have all the records for work done.
I'm selling because I just had my first kid and I need to pay off debt and haven't driven it in months. My recommendation would be to install a Tremec TKX 5 speed, that was going to be my next purchase, I think that will really improve the cruisability.
