You won't get through the gate with that.$3500 tops..
That brown car is from Downers grove Illinois....
I think that was a petcock in the fuel line so you could supply fuel to a motorist out of gas. Just went back and looked at the add for the '77. That car is in this forum somewhere. There is a picture and discussion of the "fuel off load system" in that thread.What is a ``fuel off load system``?
pushbutton trunk opener
rear window defrost
hand throttle
I thought that these were not ``things typical of a police package.``
What is a ``fuel off load system``?
Brown hemi car built in July 66, not ordered by anyone so it went to dealership in West Virginia as Nascar said 1 per dealer or no more R. Petty racie! . A dude traveling thru to Charleston Heights, SC (or NC?) blew up his big block stick Ford and coasted into the dealership. Bought it off the lot, later deceased and it sat for a LONG time, like gas to crud stuff. Collector messed with it (maybe that's Illinois) but a nice gentleman in PA finally did the car right. Its all good now and all I do is run it. It has cert card, build sheet and ownership records. ThanksThat brown car is from Downers grove Illinois....
Well if your like me, never sat in one until I bought it. YEP, That's police goodies like a single key option and the plethora of other stuff in the list. Drove it all day today. Looks like it will go to a local, and I don't even have a sign on it. Just hate to see it sit outside so buyer needs to have a garage.
PS the Wisconsin donor car had factory block heaters (cop stuff) which I did not put on this one. Since a Sheriff is elected and he comes across someone out of gas, turn the valve, get a vote. (see pic) Only in America. The hand throttle is to fast idle the car when running parked at some event to prevent overheating. And of course the pushbutton trunk is so you don't have to turn the car off to get emergency supplies. (not included). LOL Thanks for the comments.
