I prefer the 71 & 72, but I wouldn't kick that one out of bed for eating crackers.
Trans/Interior? Horseshoe shifter??

I would totally put a hitch on that to tow the 20' to car shows.

LOL, It's a very nice car...but a well done clone. A clone that had a frame-off restoration 7 years ago, has been garage kept and has 1900 miles on it. I have the factory build sheet that was under the back seat. It started life as a 307, powerglide, 10 bolt rear, AC car. It's exactly what I've been looking for. A badass car that I don't have to worry about beating on it and putting miles on it. 70 mph at 2100 rpm's with the overdrive.... 454 with aluminum heads, nice cam and all good parts in it...700R4 TCI Transmission, 12 bolt rear with 3.73 gears. All upgraded suspension parts, front and rear. It's still an old-azz car, but cool as hell! And..... wait for it.... Air Conditioning!! LOL, a must have in Florida!!

Wow I had a clone but it still had the non SS dash, looks like someone changed that.

I don’t remember if SS cars had the bench seat but still a cool car. Always loved the “cowl induction” flap.

The SS cars could be ordered with anything that you wanted. The bucket seats were a $56 dollar option. LOL My first car was a Chevelle... with a bench seat, so I don't mind having it
