Steve Charland |
Rare 4 speed car in Emberglo on emberglo. The car is in mid restoration. The exterior was repainted and the car needs reassembly. Unfortunately Steve passed away in May of 2017, so his dream was never completed. There is a shed full of parts that have been collected over the years. This will be a beautiful car, when finished. It is always sad when we lose a group member. |

A rare black on black 4-speed convertible with locking rear. Car was complete, but needed full restoration. One notable option on the car is the convenience panel. Steve acquired the car in 2018 and has since restored it. |

Beautiful and correct candy apple red with red interior and white convertible top that lives in Sandy, Utah in a climate controlled garage. Used in warm months for cruises, shows and the occasional parade. Well maintained car that was previously owned by a minister and his family for almost 40 years. Chrome and emblems were redone in 2019, and in 2020 she received a 427 Side Oiler with a Holman / Moody dual quad intake and vintage Holley carbs. The stock C6 transmission was also rebuilt to handle the increased power. Future plans include dash, gauges, console and door panel restoration. |

Very good condition. Beautiful blue metallic paint on a very straight, rust free body. Most of the chrome is in very good condition especially the rear 7 litre trunk spear. The interior is in decent condition, but is original so it could use new seat covers. It has a new top. The underside of the car is in great condition - no rust. This car has been well taken care of and appears to have been garaged it's entire life. Always garaged. Runs and drives smoothly. Odometer shows about 71,000 miles, probably original. Back in 1997 at the Ford Nationals in Carlisle Pa the car received 2 plaques from the 7 Litre club (Best Convertible and Participant's Choice). |

Hollis has owned this car since 1998, but it has been in the family since the 70s. It was purchased new in Garden City Kansas. The car is in very good condition. The engine and transmission were overhauled right before he bought it. The car was repainted in original emberglo. It is dent and rust free. Original interior is in good shape except for a split in the rear bench, and has a none original dash cover. Carpets were replaced 10 years ago, and the convertible top and wiring were done at the same time. Everything is in working order. |

Jeff's first 7-Litre was Registry #4031. He had it restored many years ago. It is a Nightmist Blue convertible with power windows and A/C and was built at the Los Angeles plant. No doubt that is why it had A/C. In a weak moment he sold the car at Auctions America in Fort Lauderdale quite a while ago. Realizing his error, he found this Silver Frost 7 Litre in Fort Wayne, Indiana several years ago. Jeff did nothing with it for quite a while but decided it was time to bring it back to life. A previous owner had painted it red, but the Silver Frost now matches the data plate. This 7-Litre will stay in the family for many years to come |
