My '68 L72 Biscayne Tribute is Available

After much consideration, and I am sure some future regret, I have decided to offer my Biscayne for sale. This car is very straight and rust free with a great paint job. It is an original V8 car, but I do not know much of it's history other than it has spent time as a drag car. It currently shows 77,xxx miles and I believe that to be pretty accurate. It has a 1970 CE block L72, M20 4 speed and 12 bolt with 3.73 and posi-traction. I have had the car for a little over 3 years and have worked to bring it close to what it is a tribute to, but certainly not an exact clone. It is done in a Day 2 theme. You can see details of my work on it on my flickr page linked below

If you are seriously interested in the car or know someone who might be, please send me a PM or email me p.dilling at outlook.com for additional details and asking price. Thanks, Pat

As someone who still has his first car 50 years later, never sell.

I get that a situation or scenario might arise where it's unavoidable, but if you truly do have a choice, make the right choice!

I ordered My car in September 1968, and received it 3rd week of December 1968. That makes it almost 50 years old, and I still have it. I wouldn't sell it. I also drove My car a lot. Do You still drive Yours? NICK L72

Pat, after looking at the pictures, and seeing the GRIN on your face--there is no way you can sell that car Morley

You may be right Morley, depends mostly if there is someone who wants to own it more than I do! It is a great memory car for me, but I feel I have enjoyed it and now would like to let someone else have a turn. :-)

Not sure why the picture disappeared from my original post. Maybe because I did some editing. Here it is again.

A beautiful backdrop. That ought to sell the car. I like the Wheels and exhaust looks good too. A good sleeper. NICK L72

Thanks Nick, the location is called "The Three Shastas" Mount Shasta in the background, Lake Shasta and the Shasta Dam. It is located in Northern California near Redding.

Pat, neat car. A nice 55 Shasta Caravan in that photo and you'd have a Superfecta ... Cheers Glenn
