Car is a real Bermuda, per the frame number (the car came with a dataplate from Villager
W8UT700315). The plate and
title have been replaced with real data codes.
Rare 9 passenger model. Complete original drvetrain in place but motor is tight right now. Might go restomod route with a 1967 390 GT motor and C6 transmisson. Real solid southern car that has sat a long time (stored 10 years in North Carolina and 20 years in Ohio.) Will hit the road in a year or two with the help of donor car W8UH702652.
