Ok. Will post pictures when done. I put a hotchkiss suspension under it. Totally. All the 1960's tie rods, sway bars, upper and lower control arms, ball joints, everything. Added A/C, added power steering. Rebuilt OHC 6 engine. Its a factory 4 barrel carb car which means a little bigger exhaust valves, a little hotter cam and maybe a couple of other things I can't recall.
People would find these and make GTO tribute cars out of them. Put in a 389 or 400 and GTO badges. All they did was make the Sprint rare and getting to be exceedingly so.
I sent the carb to All American Carburetor in Jacksonville Florida. That thing came back looking better than new.
All rust cut out and patched properly. Primed a couple of times and now in paint. Interesting thing about this car is we think it was used by a fire chief or assistance fire chief in California. Top of car originally was red and bottom white. We did find a hole in roof for a big red bubble gum light.
