71polara (thanx Dave from c-bodies) put me onto a donor 71 Polara Custom in original cond in Spokane, Flew there from NZ... car was going to be derby'd.. I convinced owner to sell to me as a donor car for my 71chp,, but wow the car was all original.. paint n running gear (383)... all trim and chrome in great shape did have a little rust in rear quarters and around the front n rear screens and the white vinyl roof was crumblin but she ran good enuf to do nearly 6000mls (tag team drivin with my lady) the whole month I was in the US.

I just couldnt chop into it for use as a donor after doin all that milage trouble free (did have to replace fuel pump in Saltlake) and its the missus fav car (fav colour matt black) so I said it could be her daily if she helped clean her up,, she did all the prep work for paint... a lota hours de trimming, masking, sanding a bita spraypainting and endless cleaning..
