This car has the rare L66 Turnpike Cruiser package. It is documented with the original window stickers, it was purchased new in Tacoma Washington. This car has the original 400 E block C head engine like the 442 came with. Yet these are a two barrel from the factory, It has the original TH400 automatic switch pitch transmission, (like the 442 came with) it also has the special 2:56 rearend exclusive to the L66 Turnpike Cruiser. This package is very rare and special. I will post a link to the road test information about these awesome high speed highway cruisers. This car has the original engine that has been rebuilt professionally by Eastco Machine in Gresham Oregon. I have the reciepts and machinists build notes. That and lots of other reciepts and information is put into a binder that goes with the car when purchased. The transmission is the original 67 OH code Th400 for this car. It has been rebuilt, The rearend is the correct and original 2:56 ratio and has been resealed and inspected with no issues. The drum brakes have been rebuilt all around. The master Cylinder and brake booster are also fresh. The Engine has all new hoses and belts, new fuel pump, carburetor is the correct original 2 barrel and has been professionally rebuilt and recolored as it should be. The radiator has been serviced and is correct, belts are new. The distributor has been upgraded to a pertronix for more effective spark. The exhaust has been replaced with full 2 1/2 dual with a cross over and flowmaster mufflers. The suspension has all new bushings, tie rods, balls joints, springs and shocks. The car has been repainted the original color Y code Saffron Yellow. The original vinyl top has been replaced as it came new. the windshield is new and has new seals. The weatherstrips are new for doors, roof rail, trunk, window felts and hood bumpers. The engine compartment has been detailed in the correct black, the correct and original Climate Combustion Control air cleaner has been restored and looks awesome. The original bumpers have been rechromed and the brackets have been powder coated. We finally found a decent set of Rally 1 wheels for this car. So they are now on it with a fresh set of GT Performance radial 235 60 14 tires. This is one very nice car. The engine has been started and cam broke in with a full performance tune up. It has only a few miles on the drivetrain. The engine is not broke in yet. The trunk has been fully detailed with the correct jack, and jacking instructions as well as a new trunk mat. This car has the original never been rotten floors, doors, and body. The interior has been redone with new factory style seat upholstery on the correct and original split bench seat with an arm rest, new carpet, and new headliner. As you can see by the original window sticker the car came new with SS1 wheels. The Turnpike Cruiser package L66 comes with the 400 E block 2 barrel 300 horsepower engine, boxed rear control arms with rear swaybar and all the rest of the suspension upgrades same as a 442.
