John Fortini John has owned the car since 2001.  He purchased it from someone in Malden Mass.  The car was last registered in Massachusetts in 1986, and appears to have been garaged since that time.  No prior history, other than it being a Los Angeles build.  No door tag info as the door was replaced at one time.  The colors, axle ratio, and transmission have been authenticated.  Good news is that the cowl tag and fender tags were visible and were correct and original. The motor is in the middle of a rebuild.  Many performance parts including roller rocker cam and Crites headers. The body is in good condition, with a few manageable rust areas in the rear quarters, and the frame very good.  Interior was hard to tell as it was full of boxes of parts.  All of the chrome appeared to still be with the car. It would need to be redone as part of the restoration.  This car is for sale and the contact information can be found in the CARS FOR SALE section of this website.

Michael Christy This car was for sale on ebay in late 2008.  it was garaged in Palo Alto at that time.  This is a Candy Apple Red on Red automatic, built in Los Angeles, January 10th, 1966.  Engine has been completely rebuilt with only 4000 miles on the rebuild.  The paint is new as well. The only work needed is the front end, squeaks and the dash (cover pad? is aftermarket. It's been garaged, a non-smoker, and service records available. Has original hubcaps and all chrome and 7L hardware. Cool factoid on this one, it is the ONLY KNOWN CAR to come equipped with 4.11:1 locking rear end.

Steven T Barrow

This is a 4 speed hardtop. Originally Dark Ivy Green metallic with Ivy Gold interior. Previous owner purchased this car in 2008 then sold it to a friend who owns a body shop.  Said friend did the entire body over plus beefed up the frame. His intent was to make this a drag car but then lost interest and so he so gave it back.  Steven contacted the 7-Litre Group because he owned this car around 1983 and then loss track of it. We contacted the current owner for Steven and he found out it was his exact same car. The owner agreed to sell it to him and now it is back in Steven's hands after 40 years! Stories like these are why we have the registry!!!!

Robert L. Mitchem This 7-litre came very standard with the 428 engine, C-6 automatic and 3.25 open rear end. The only option on the car is the AM/FM radio. It does not have A/C, P/W or P/S. Just power disc brakes and power steering which were standard. From what I can tell it has spent most of its life in North Carolina. It is still in NC at my Dad's place. I am currently in the Air Force stationed at Cannon AFB NM and I just do not have the room for it or my 66 XL. The motor and transmission have been rebuilt. The engine has a Ford motorsport cam, hooker headers and a 750 CFM Holley. I upgraded to a 3.50:1 locking rear end. It has been repainted a few times but overall is a presentable driver that I hope to one day treat to a full restoration.
All the best to you Robert and thank you for your service to our country.  - Editor

Ev Visk

This car is a parts car, that Ev had up for sale in March of 2009. Ev did some spring cleaning, and got rid of 4 of his 7-Litres, including this one, which started life as a Silver Frost on red Hardtop. Don't know if this one will ever be restored or will end up as a parts car. Engine and Tranny are gone as well as front clip.

Dale Avery

Dale purchased from neice of original owner, who kept it covered in his garage except to take her grandmother to church on Sundays. Then he moved to Las Vegas where it was under a carport and he drove it to and from the bank and market. The mileage is original as is the interior. It has been painted once. An unrestored, extremely nice hardtop with just 67k miles!  The Medium Palomino Metallic color makes it extremely rare, since it is only one of 6 HT's on the registry this color.  She inherited it from her elderly uncle, who passed it to his sister when he died.  The car has been sitting for several years and the engine has a "tick" like a stuck lifter, which makes sense.  It shifts smoothly.  The car has was built in LA and has all the California emissions equipment, which is also rare.  It has been in the southwest all its life, so theres no rust!
