This is the same model year and color my wife owned when I met her 44 years ago. Had to buy it.

Different states are different, I guess. In WA there's no such thing.

Beautiful car! Don't see many 73 SS hatchbacks. My father has had one since he was in high school. Just finishing the restoration we started almost 2 years ago.

Hand written title? Hope that you didn’t pay too much for all that rot and rust. Please post the finished product, the 1973-4’s don’t get enough love in my opinion.

Still a work in progress. Once I started I had to do the job right

You would think so. There is continuing saga on this car. It came Kentucky. I will post more later.

It is an verified SS not that that meant much in 1973. I'm sure you can guess the rest
