    Go for it that will be one sweet ride once there is a motor and tranny in it. It looks like it has a really nice body or is there something wrong with the other side?

    Definitely has potential...   8)



    Be interesting to hear your report.    If that picture is a good indicator of the overall condition, you would really have some freedom to drop a monster motor in there and have a real party doing it!

    Did the body just get painted ?  Take your magnet with you. ;)

    Curious to see if all the wiring and supporting material is still in place, or if its a totally empty engine bay, or what.  

    If you do get it, what do you 'spose you will do with it ?

    Drag ?  Cruzer ?  Factory Look ?

    I agree with LB, drop in a crate motor ($3500) & a rebuilt  727 ($1500) and this thing will be a screaming $8000 bargain.  If you don't buy it, please let us know!

    Bart, if I were you, I'd definitely go for it, provided funds are alright.  When I bought my '73 Challenger, I paid $1,750. for it, plus another $650 in new body panels....With the other pieces I've purchased for it, I'm now at around $3,200.00 and that's not including paint!  From what it looks like in the photo, it's a really nice, straight car.  I'm looking forward to hearing what happens.. :)

     :D Yeah, I'd go for it if the other side looks as good as the driver's side. The paint looks great from here. I assume the seats can a least hold passengers, so drop in the engine and drivetrain and go. The interior work can always wait until you have the finds. Good luck and keep us updated.

    Didn't buy it, to many thing like he was running a big block with NO2, body may have been tweeked, didn't use sub frame conectors. Anyhow it;s for sale, if any want the number PM me.
