Since it barely covers the deck lid I'm thinking it's an A body wing. Whatever it is it needs to be gone.

Refresh my deteriorating brain cells.
Any A-bodies with a factory wing?

Yes we have a winner!

 

[amazinblue82]

at least its in NY State near enough the "Fleet HQ" to make transport economical.

alas, however, i cannot save it though I do want to (and if I were a decade younger would have tried) .

Hope it finds a good home -- provided it otherwise has "good bones".

The engine is not original. It used to have a 383-2 before the 440 transplant, if memory serves (from 3 weeks ago). I passed.

Great info ayilar -- thanks.

easily remedied for me boss. i have a dozen or so mills at "Fleet HQ" on racks .. i'd drop one of my '71 cop E86 powertrains in it and party on -- I believe tho I have a '71 cop 383, dialed up we had on the stand early 2018 (i test run running/rebuilt mills every couple of years)

Again tho, what it would take to make this car respectable comes outta the "amazinblue82 benevolent bus fund" .. so i cant get there from here on this one. [/QUOTE]

I'd do 800 .. a lot of time undoing things

The seller with his mods devalued the car considerably.

That's what the gray car looks like under the hood, the wiring harness has been a mess since way before I ever saw the car, and I haven't bothered correcting it as I was going to make a new harness.

This is what would have become of the Brougham if I didnt make my way to this site. Thanks guys. You fixed my flawed view of what I thought a Polara should be. Except I'd never use a cowl induction style scoop.

Somewhere there is a Chevy missing its L-88 hood scoop and an A body missing its go wing. The underhood wiring is a rat's nest. I hope this guy finds another hobby so no other cars get harmed in the process.
