Sold New to J.A Pellerin of Santa Clara California, Delivery date of 3-11-67. The second owner Ron purchased from Patton Oldsmobile Chevrolet in Fortuna Ca. on 01-29-76. He lived in Redding California and renewed his registration for 3 years before parking her in his garage for a permanent slumber. We purchased this automobile from the second owner. We have his original title from 1976, the three registration cards and protect-o-plate. The Trumpet Gold paint has its share of chips and blemishes but still has a nice gloss to it. The Matching Numbers 425/385hp Super Rocket V8 runs strong after a 37 year post slumber Tune Up which included a new water pump, radiator, hoses, harmonic balancer and timing chain seal and gasket, plugs, wires, cap and rotor, wheel cylinders and brake shoes etc… The Turbo-Hydramatic Heavy Duty 3 Speed Automatic operates flawlessly. All interior lights function properly as does the fan, radio and turn signals. The pop up headlights are not popping.
