Vehicle Detail
I bought this as a project car in February and I don't have time right now to restore it. We have had a lot of rain in Mississippi and I will post pictures later today. The frame is exceptionally solid. The body is solid with the exception of the rear passenger's side quarter panel and it would be best to have it replaced. The trunk floor has pin holes in it and would best to be replaced. I have a Super T10 transmission from a 1979 firebird that is in good working order. I have a complete and running 400 Pontiac motor with 6X heads from a 1978 Firebird Trans Am. I have the driveshaft and an engine from a 1967 big Pontiac car and was a 400 ci. WD code 290 horsepower unit. It was freshly rebuilt and never started. Water had gotten down into the cylinder and the surface rust is a little too deep in two cylinder walls and it needs to be bored with new pistons. I have the flywheel and clutch assemblies which are new. It was a 4 speed car and the pedals and Z bar are included. I have no rear bumper or taillights. I do not have the front valance or turn signals. All of the hideaway light system is present but needs two new actuators. I have applied for a clear Mississippi title and should receive it in 3 weeks. Mississippi did not have titles in 1968 and was able to obtain a valid title from the court system email for any questions. 200.00 dollar deposit in 48 hours and full payment in 7 days. The car has a lot of good qualities and a lot of things missing. It is very solid. I figure it would cost about 6000.00 to get the car driving and in primer. I have had a few people look at the car from Crackheads list and they have all noted that the car is very solid around the front and rear windows and the outer wheel houses in the rear. Front fenders are rust free and never patched.
