In response to some comments below:\r\n\r\nI should have a recent (past weekend) GoPro video uploaded tomorrow.\r\n\r\nThere was no build concept when I bought it in 2013. It's not numbers matching or a W30, so it's never going to be a big dollar collector car. Every modification was to make it more fun to drive, cruise more specifically. It's great for long drives and pulls hard around town with almost 600 lb-ft of torque at the rear wheels. \r\n\r\nThe roll bar is for 3 purposes: (1) anchor for 3 point seat belt - a necessity, (2) add some rigidity to convertible body, and (3) well, for rollovers.\r\n\r\nIt's Sebring Yellow now, but I don't think it was originally. There were no records available when I bought it. But then very little on this car is original at this point. The trim tag doesn't have a code so it was custom paint in 1970, but I think it was Hugger Orange or whatever the Olds equivalent was. Under the interior trim pieces, carpet, back seat etc. you can see that the overspray was reddish-orange, and it shows sometimes under the Sebring Yellow.\r\n\r\nIt's a ton of fun to drive. Always garaged, never whipped. Just getting to old to enjoy it.\r\n\r\nThanks", "likes": 5, "timestamp": 1638925205, "type": "comment"}, {"id": 7428812, "authorName": "Cartrader128", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/cartrader128/", "bidAmount": 13000, "content": "$13,000 bid placed by Cartrader128", "likes": 0, "timestamp": 1638961790, "type": "bat-bid"}, {"id": 7428954, "authorName": "bringatrailer", "authorUrl": "", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "A video have been added to the listing by @dmhoffman44221.", "likes": 0, "timestamp": 1638970059, "type": "comment"}, {"id": 7429477, "authorName": "cmarv", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/cmarv/", "bidAmount": 13501, "content": "$13,501 bid placed by cmarv", "likes": 0, "timestamp": 1638977673, "type": "bat-bid"}, {"id": 7430098, "authorName": "mee418", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/mee418/", "bidAmount": 13751, "content": "$13,751 bid placed by mee418", "likes": 0, "timestamp": 1638984615, "type": "bat-bid"}, {"id": 7430111, "authorName": "jtermite", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/jtermite/", "bidAmount": 14339, "content": "$14,339 bid placed by jtermite", "likes": 0, "timestamp": 1638984702, "type": "bat-bid"}, {"id": 7430184, "authorName": "cmarv", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/cmarv/", "bidAmount": 15000, "content": "$15,000 bid placed by cmarv", "likes": 0, "timestamp": 1638985304, "type": "bat-bid"}, {"id": 7433288, "authorName": "jtermite", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/jtermite/", "bidAmount": 15777, "content": "$15,777 bid placed by jtermite", "likes": 0, "timestamp": 1638999854, "type": "bat-bid"}, {"id": 7434230, "authorName": "highoctane1", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/highoctane1/", "bidAmount": 20000, "content": "$20,000 bid placed by highoctane1", "likes": 0, "timestamp": 1639003395, "type": "bat-bid"}, {"id": 7435528, "authorName": "JeepsGunsTanks", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/jeepsgunstanks/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "I'm sure we will see a flurry of bids on 18 hours or so.

For the winner I'll include the following with the car:\r\n\r\nSet of tire savers (I park it in the winter before the first time the roads are salted and leave it until after a couple of heavy rains in the spring); it's always garaged;\r\nCar cover - good quality, breathable;\r\n1 spare BF Goodrich tire unmounted;\r\nTPMS system already installed - just insert display unit into one of the two cigarette lighter ports; the wrench and instructions are in the glove box;\r\nTrickle charger - the battery drains quickly when not driving;\r\nLoose leaf notebook with all the installation instructions and operating manuals for all the additions (power windows, Vintage A/C, fuel injection system, Wilwood brake system, radiator etc.), such that I have been able to retain;\r\nModern scissor jack - I tossed the old bumper jack a long time ago.\r\n\r\nNote on the FAST EFI system - in the glove box there's a wired controller/screen to program the fuel injection system. The guys at Injection Connection in Horsham, PA (great shop) tuned it a few years ago and I haven't touched it since. RPM are limited to 5,250 through this unit. Buyer can go higher but this is not a high-revving motor. Gil Davis, the engine builder (again, top-notch guy) called the motor a \"stump puller\". So it is. \r\n\r\nThe touch screen sound/info system links wirelessly with Apple, with cable for Samsung. I had the stereo guys (Banghart's in West Chester PA, excellent) add two USB ports so no connectivity issues.\r\n\r\nMy guess is the dyno numbers at the wheel are light. I have all-season 8 inch tires on it so I can drive it when cold outside (but never salty), so maybe 9 inch summer tires and higher revs might get higher results. Dyno guys estimated 15% power lost through the drivetrain so flywheel #s higher not that the driving result is any different.\r\n\r\nThanks.", "likes": 2, "timestamp": 1639048644, "type": "comment"}, {"id": 7436932, "authorName": "Samc3v", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/samc3v/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "has anyone commented on the driver in the video?
