I was talking to a guy tonight that has been sitting on one. He said that front fenders and rear quarters are the only aftermarket panels you can buy for them. No doors, floors hood, etc.
In search of the eternal buzz!

My mom's best friend bought one new in 66 and it was a ragtop, 383, 4spd. It kinda stood out even back then as a wee bit unusual. Nice car and scarce.  :cheers:

Not good, that's why they cost much less money, the drivetrain though worths a lot...

I would, however I have no where to put it currently and 2 ongoing projects (The Cuda and the roadrunner) which demand $$. I could get it to flip it but I don't have the time.

My 67 was dark blue with black interior. I bought it from a Chevy dealer for $150. I loved that car but I was young and things didn't end well for it. It was a lot of fun and probably one of the top 5 cars I miss.
