This car starts right up, runs and drives. Ratrod or restore ready... and priced to move (check NADA guide for going prices). Drive it as is, or make it a winter project! This is a utilitarian vehicle that has obviously seen some work hours in its day. The bed is pretty solid, but has some small rust-through holes. The gate works well and shuts tight, but has some cosmetic issues. The frame is solid, but the body panels have their share of rust, some that has been repaired well, some that has been repaired in a somewhat slipshod manner, and some that will need attention if you plan to restore this car to its former glory. Newer battery (about a year old). Windshield has a crack at the base (couldn't get a good picture of it). It was hopped up and blacked out at some point in its past. Newer dual exhaust, American Racing rims running P235/75R15 tires out back, racing buckets, and a CD player show that someone set it up for fun. The customization was obviously carried out some time ago, and the age shows. Some paint has bubbled, cracked and peeled away. Some bodywork is wavy. The chrome on the rims is largely worn out. The original seats were replaced with very comfortable racing buckets. The tires have a pretty good amount of tread left. The newer dual exhaust and turn-down pipes give it an awesome rumble. As with any 40 year old car at this price, she's sold as-is, where is with no warranties expressed or implied. I drove her home yesterday about 15 miles at about 55-65 mph. If you have questions, please ask them before bidding. It looks better in the pictures than it does in person, so if you want to take a look at the car in person so that you know exactly what you are getting, contact me and I'll do everything I can to set that up. Transport is your responsibility, but I'm happy to work with your hauler. Folks with fewer than ten positive feedbacks, or a rate of less than 98% need to contact me BEFORE bidding to discuss the possibility of bidding. This vehicle sells to the US and Canada only. $500 deposit via PayPal required within 24 hours of purchase. Thanks for looking! Have a great day!
