Hi all, I'm Jeff from up north, montreal to be exact. I've coming here for about a month now... Great site, very useful info...
I'm working on a deal for a 78 Y88 W72/4 spd non-WS6, PHS documented, match number with 92000 miles and probably very few winters. Body is solid, no rust, which is no small feat in Quebec, interior is a 9/10.
All owners are known and fully documented. I even found out I knew the original salesman who sold it in 78... Small world... It belongs to a member of my family who's a mechanic and a detail freak. For example, he rebuilt the tranny just because he thought he heard a whine from it... he also chage the final ratio back to the original, which came witht the car. Engine is very healthy. He bought it last spring and now wants somethig else (new toy every year...)
A few questions : The car was painted once (never wrecked) but was painted starlight black, with the correct graphics and decals. Is this considered treason?
Wheels have been refinisned but not painted. I know non-WS6 wheels should be painted like the wheel on the right (see pic in S/E page) but is the 78 color code 55 the right one?
Deal is for $17000 US... Sound about right?
Sorry about the long post... I know you like pics so here are a few...
Jeff
