My opinion is this is a great investment car! I did some research on auctions over the last 5 years and it looks like prices have doubled with sales on the few that have come up running high even with light restorations and cars into 6 figure prices.
What we have here is a car we bought as a driver. At the time (2009) extensive work was performed to get it and keep it on the road. Including attention to all crucial parts: brakes, ires, ngine. Since we got the car it has been moved from here to there around our facility. But never stored in open air outside. It has always been covered and under a roof. We decided this car was an excellent car to restore ground up but after 6 years and no progress for this one, ts got to go to make room.
In the back of the car there are many extra parts including Air conditioning parts which this car is non-air conditioned currently. Extra instrument clusters, rim pieces, ubcaps, tc. The engine has been started recently as of last week. I drove it around the property here and brakes work, ransmission shifts, uns cool. The tires have been sitting too long in the florida sunshine for driving it on the road safely.
For the specifics it has: 371 ci engine, utomatic trans, eater, ower brakes and steering.
The rockers have been repaired previously with heavy gage metal and does not look stock from underneath. The floor pans will need repaired.
And don't forget there is a "best offer" button above you can push!!!!
