Up for sale is a late 66 SJ highly optioned coupe. It retains approximately 65% of its original paint, including many factory ink stamps and crayon marks in various areas shown in photos. Original data plate, drive train, owners manual and service record back to early 80's. Factory options include: deluxe interior, short console, power steering, A/C and disc brake, vinyl top, tinted glass car. The paint is not perfect and does have several scratches, wear areas and touch ups but overall retains its shine. There is a small 12" area on top front of drivers fender and approximately 6" on both sides of gas cap that appear to have minor body work and resprayed decades ago. (entire body panels were not repainted, only the small affected areas and blended in to original paint. Underside of the drivers fender appears very straight so I don't know what the reason for the repaint on the top side was. Inside of the tail light panel shows three or four 1/4" circles that are evidence of heat treatment but entire trunk and back side of tail light section is straight and retain its original paint. Drivers door has been repainted.
Aftermarket parts I've noticed on the car: Carpet, rear seat belts, windshield, door panels, wood steering wheel, fuel tank and fuel send unit, wheels are obviously '65 styled wheels (car originally equipped with standard steel wheels and standard 66 hub caps), exhaust (originally single exhaust and is now dual), fuel pump, oil filter, battery, heater core, hoses and air filter. This car has resided in the Los Angeles area its entire life and has a 100% rust free virgin metal body. All the date codes on the body panels and glass are in line with the production date of the car. Seat upholstery, vinyl top and headliner are original. Small tear in the stitching of drivers seat and a few inches of passenger headliner. Car runs and sounds beautiful with its aggressive stock 289 2v engine and auto trans. 15" Tires and wheels are fairly new. Most of the major seals and gaskets have recently been replaced: oil pan and oil pump gasket, rear main seal, transmission pan gasket and filter, trans tail shaft seal and bushing, power steering boot and clamp. Fluids recently changed and there are no leaks. Everything works. Message if you'd like to see additional photos or video, or have other questions. $26,990.
