The inside of the hood either "caught fire" or more likely its a $149.00 BB hood from Ecklers...The photo of the rear end may be to close to show if they added a sway bar but it looks to have BB caps on the 1/2 shafts.
I talked to the owners of this car for a friend almost a year ago and they really sounded like they knew very little about midyears in general and were
probably looking for a buyer that knew less.I am suprised its still for sale after all this time as foreign buyers usually grab these "deals".

But the '67 big blocks don't have a battery door on the inner fender.

Norris -

They do if it's a 390hp or 400hp with A/C; all A/C cars had the driver's side battery mounting.

On the sta bar, yes!, oh, well this is one of the yet to mature BB's that greww 100 cu in after it left St Louis

Someone should tell them that for a modest 1000 investment in a sta bar and tire tub they have a more mature fake 427.
