| Car history: |
| Original owner and purchased the car in September, 1968 from Reedman Corporation in Langhorne, PA. From the Vin # the car was manufactured in May 1968 making it one of the last 1968s. The car has both tops and has the rare Tobacco interior (TO-V) which is not listed as an interior color for the original British Green (983) exterior color. Protecto-Plate is in my name. The car was converted to a blue-printed and balanced L88 in 1970. I have all original receipts. I blended a special green paint in 1970 which was lacquer and contained two ounces of 24Kt gold leaf dust. It now is painted the same color as in 1970. have the original L-88 12:1 pistons, and stage III camshaft (plus many other parts). The original OK Custom side headers are gone, parts were replaced in the mid-1990s with a milder cam and 10.5:1 pistons in order to drive on public streets. |
