DESCRIPTION
This is a project car that rolls and steers, there is no engine, transmission, or driveshaft in the car or included with the sale. There is a radiator in the car. The frame and all of the structure is very solid with only minor surface rust. This car is from the dry climate of southern Idaho and has been stored inside for the last 10 years. Interior and engine/trans is out of the car and it’s very clean, so it’s easy to inspect all of the metal and see how solid it is. The glass is all there and the stainless trim is all really good except some small dings in one piece near the lower passenger side of windshield. The car appears to have been repainted many years ago and the vinyl top removed, the roof skin is in perfect condition. I have lots of pictures and can send you more specific pics on request. This is a link to a YouTube video that shows the car in much more detail.

WHAT IT NEEDS
Engine, transmission, transmission crossmember, driveshaft. The passenger rear corner of the car needs repair from a low speed collision, but otherwise it’s a solid car overall with just minimal rust in the usual places and the pictures show the worst areas like the passenger floor, lower corners of the rear window frame, and the driver’s side lower rear quarter panel. Needs the passenger rear quarter, frame rail, rear valence, and the trunk floor. The passenger door outer skin and rocker panel have damage but I’d say the door skin could be straightened. The front valance and bumper is pushed up in the center, I have a second front valance that is slightly better, the grille looks good except the driver side has a crack above bumper in the silver painted area. This was originally an AC car but a heater only unit is in the car now. The K member on the passenger side has been repaired and the frame has a small dent from the suspension moving beyond normal range but nothing major.
INCLUDES
A nice, straight, driver quality rear bumper with mounting brackets, two sets of taillights, enough to make a driver quality pair with extras, extra hood that has minor damage but no rust, a second steering box with a pump, the rear seat, one front bucket that I’m not sure is correct for the car, instrument cluster parts, and a few interior parts but it’s missing most of the interior, the steering wheel is nearly perfect with no cracks but missing the horn button, original AM radio, I have some of the original wiring from the car in a box. The headlight actuators are in place. The window regulators are in place and they all roll up and down very well. I have four 14” rally wheels that can go with the car.
I encourage any buyer to come see the car in person to appreciate how solid it is and I will do my best to accommodate your schedule if you’re coming to see it. If you have additional questions, please message me with your contact info and I can give you a call. The car is sold as is, where is, with no warranty. A 0 non refundable deposit via PayPal is due within 24 hrs. of the winning bid and the balance is due in full within 7 days. I will only accept bank wire, cashiers check, or cash in person. I can hold the car for you up to 30 days after full payment. I reserve the right to end the auction early as the car is also for sale locally. I can load the car on your trailer when you pick it up or work with your shipper to load it. Delivery may be available for a fee depending on distance, the car is in Boise, Idaho.
I have several big block engines and other drivetrain parts for sale separately, including a non numbers matching, 1968 four barrel 383HP and 727, from a police car with 90k miles that I’ve had running.
