If you have money to spend on a rust bucket, US Car Tool does rotisseries on your body for $17,500.

It just makes sense and cents (no pun intended!) to start with a good car!

Time is money if they do it or you do it.

At least for $17,000 you can bring them a car with a fender tag or build sheet.  Also you can have them do a rusty RT which will be worth way more than a slant 6 once done.  Also, I can do it for less even charging myself a fair hourly rate then $17,000 they want..... heck, I can get it done in paint for nearly that.

Also, the car here needs the trunk issue (notice no photo was show) addressed and that means most likely putting in a two piece (which looks like you replaced a rusty trunk) or you have to start removing other panels to get a full piece trunk in.  Either way, this rust free car is FAR from ready for paint so it's not like one costs you $17,000 and the other is ready to go.

The car is not worth 12K.  I wish it was because I would have about twice as much money in cars as I actual do.

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

This shot shows the small hole "punched" in the trunk floor.  It is just that, not  rust...  This is just the way I got the car and never said it was ready for paint.   It is very solid.

Still have $4000 for you if you want it  :popcorn:  listen to what they are saying would be my advice if you want to sell it you need to lower your price, although its a 70 cuda its just not worth $12000, like i say if you want rid of it i have $4000 here for you or you could consider building it up yourself  :dunno:

I don't think anyone would swap in a 225 and torqueflite or that it would matter to the person who will build this into a great car with original sheetmetal, not a welded together piece of aftermarket frame/floor/trunk/quarter pieces.  Anyone who has done that will never do it again... Just ask.   The car is available at this moment but won't be for long...I do not believe there is a build sheet.

I welded mine together with aftermarket panels and plan on doing it again on another project. I hope it's worth at least $12,000  :bigsmile:

It looks pretty good.  :2thumbs:

If the aftermarket sheet metal comes from Taiwan and China, maybe a new term has just been coined, Chinallenger:roflsmiley:
