Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Automatic, P S, P B, factory A C (not hooked up), pushbutton radio, luggage rack. Dull, scratched old repaint with overspray, fair old chrome. Upgraded with CJ heads and 4 barrel. A presentable driver with Marti report identifying it as one of one in these colors and (original) engine.

Market commentary

Wednesday. The seller made a big deal out of this California Special having the rare X code engine fo which only 76 were built. Thats because it was a dog, a slug, a 2 barrel snore and that explains why this GT CS now has a 4 barrel intake and CJ heads. Talk about looking stupid.... This is an uninteresting car of little significance that has all its weaknesses highlighted by the owners modifications. Even at that, however, the B J Wednesday bidders recognized its positive attributes and paid all the money for what it was.
