A beautiful car. I see a couple of mistakes. The engine did not have flags and hp decals. A nice job heating and installing them. The horn relay is in the wrong location. It should not be seen, it is under the left support. The wheel well moldings in the back are not right. I see evidence of flat rear quarter panels. My NOS have pronounced bulges and the lower panel does not the seam flowing into the rear panel. The wings are too high and the trunk lid is not level. All in all the car is nice and I am glad it brought that money. It makes My car more valuable. Where is the mention of the papers and POP? NICK L72

I'm curious, for 1970 wouldn't a 454-power Chevy have a side-post battery?

I know dad ordered his '70 Biscayne with practically nothing except for F40 suspension, T60 battery & G78-15 blackwalls. It was a top-post battery but then again it had an inline six & was from Oshawa.

Re: Donny B

My 1970 Impala was a 350 250 hp 350 turbo 4 door. It had a side post battery with GM cables. Of course it was a used car, but I remember checking in 1970 cars as a Chevy Technician. That battery is definitely not a Delco. 2 points off the sale price, but not a show car. NICK L72
