Guys, is this one in the database? A friend of mine is interested. It will be at B/J Northeast.
Thanks, Doc.

Discussed here 2014 due to an ebay ad. CHP has appraised it.

Impressed that it retains the standard hood.

Thanks William! Does anyone know if watz69 still owns it? He hasn't been active since 10/18/18.
Thanks, Doc.

Based on the B-J description (Charley's link), why would a car have 4 different appraisal inspections by Jerry MacNeish? Not taking anything away from a beautiful car, just curious.

I'd speculate the restorer was working toward a zero deficiency report from CHP and it took 4 inspections before he achieved it. That said, on first glance I noticed in the BJ photos that the air filter is incorrect, the brake booster valve is a repop, the bottom edge of the dash pad is wavy and the upper control arm retainer washers are unpainted. Not sure how that merits 999 points.

Lloyd, thanks for the comment. Just figured that given a comprehensive list of component or finish issues in the very first CHP report, and solid research (it's all here!), it should've been nailed by inspection number 2.
Perhaps the car passed through several owners along the way.....
