I was not thinking of resale value.  Just would be nice to have original drive train that came with car.

I would check with the person who had the drivetrain to see if the block or 4speed might have have the partial vin that matches your car! Also get the code off the right rear axle tube. Your car would be worth with the original drivetrain.

To be honest. The resale value has no bearing on the vehicle to me. It’s not going anywhere.
Now there's a man who knows what he want. I've had my since 1976 & 1981. Good for you...Joe

I am young. I’m 32. My dad had one when I was a kid and it’s been my dream car. I figure when I die there will be so few real ones left it won’t matter what I did to it. It still will be worth money. Outside will be pretty much stock looking. Maybe a newer style of wheels to give it a resto mod look. And I’m putting a basic LS in it because I want to drive it a lot.

Not stripes - looks like the car was white once.

That would make sense except it’s not all over. I’ll post more pictures. It’s just a pain scaling them down. I have to transfer them from my phone to Mac then post. I can scrape off this orange paint easily around where the weatherstripping sat and there is no white. The glove box sticker is gone. Someone was changing the interior from blue to black. The glove box is not original. It is black. I have some blue stuff in the trunk but no glove box

The VIN area wouldn't have stripe paint on it.

If you have an android phone its easy to post. I use an app called reduce photo size by shoozhoo.  You share the picture to the app, make it smaller and save it.  Your phone will have a group in gallery called reduce photo size when done.  I read the site on my phone and posting pictures is easy.  I would assume iphone has the same or similar app
