Talk to Carmine @ Classic Performance in Calgary , tell him you know me , you might get a better deal through Roseville Moparts tho .
I would look at Accurate Exhaust .
I like Manual steering & brakes !

Here is a picture of the brake cyl, I don’t have the fender tag it was removed and was lost☹️

 @Jd 63 Did you look for a build sheet, they can reproduce a fender tag from a build sheet. My barracuda has manual steering and breaks, And there no problem. I like the feel of the steering, the trick is the car has to be rolling before you try to turn the steering wheel.  :alan2cents:

Here are some more pictures, I haven't looked for the build sheet yet, I'm waiting for a friend who has taken these cars apart before. There has not been a bolt touched on this car Since it's been in our family and doesn't look like anything before that

Here's a few more

Wow: That's a sweet car. A few things have to go as you tidy it up but the body looks great and the major components are all there. The 4 speed and rally gauges are a huge bonus too! Love the wheelcovers.

I hate to be that guy, but the rally gauges may have been added. Note the two speed wiper motor, That's OK i plan on doing the same thing to my gran coupe.  :yes:

RUNCHARGER

You're right, missed that.

Very cool car, but someone changed a few things before your family bought it. Someone has swapped out the dash pad, likely the instruments, the shifter boot and carpet to name a few..  :dunno:

Is that an original Alberta car? Those lower quarters don't look like Alberta issue. Notice the original exhaust resonators too, generally long gone when these cars were only a few years old.

Someone added some crazy side mirrors as well.. :bigthumb:

I asked my brother and found out he change the gauges, the original dash pad was cracked up so he changed the gauges and pad. Located the original, thanks for spotting that. But as far as the carpet and mirrors are you sure there not original.
The car is actually a California car, there's actually a sad story with it so there's a reason it's been parked so long

JS29

Carpet and mirrors are definitely not original.  Dash pad can be recovered or exchanged. The steal backing on the dash pads are of some value.  :alan2cents:

I was going to ask, is it a LA built car?   
that appears to be a LA Goodyear in the trunk, LA also used different wheels than Hamtramck - pictures of date codes and stamps much appreciated when you get a chance

yes, mirrors & mudflaps added
