'65 Special 4-speed car for sale

Recommended Posts

1965 Special 4dr. sedan with the 300 high compression 4bbl. engine, T10 4-speed and 3.23 posi rear end. I have had the car since 1994. When I rescued it, it was a V6 3-speed on the column car. I immediately swapped in the 300 4bbl out of another '65 and eventually found all of the correct parts to make it into a 4-speed. Don't let that discourage you though--the conversion was done with great attention to detail and the only way anyone could tell this car didn't come this way would be the numbers.

It was completely painted inside and out with PPG base/clear about 5 years ago and has been garaged ever since. New floor pan from a donor car and new trunk floor installed. All of the outside body panels are the originals except for the truck lid--it was rusted through on the edges and I had to replace it.

Engine has a Poston 110a cam, Milodon double row chain and dual point dist. This car runs STRONG and is still very mild manered and great to haul the family around in.

ceneterforce clutch

polyuerthane bushings in the rear

You can drive this car anywhere--I have put over 50k miles on it since I have owned it, less than 10,000 since it was painted/restored. Gets 16 mpg on the highway and runs on 93 octane. I have entered it in many AACA shows and won some trophies with it. I also have an original set of steel wheels I will throw in with it and the original set of dog-dish hubcaps that were on it when I got it.

Asking $9,000 Only sell to a good home.
