I HAVE SOLD ALL OVER THE WORLD. ENCLOSED TRACTOR TRAILER CARRIERS CAN PULL RIGHT UP TO MY DOOR WITH NO ISSUES. CAR WILL REMAIN GARAGED UNTIL PICK-UP. YOU HAVE 15 DAYS TO DO SO, OR UNLESS OTHERWISE AGREED. I UNDERSTAND SOME SHIPPERS MAY TAKE LONGER. I DON'T ASK FOR NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSITS, A SALE IS A SALE. PLEASE BE REAL. DEAL IS DONE WHEN THE CAR LEAVES MY DRIVEWAY. PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE AD. The car's history: The builder of the car passed on a few years back. The car sat in a barn as an old drag car until sold to a friend of that family. The car went from one barn to the next. I found the car local to me in a barn. The car is a pro street with Mickey Thompson Sportsmans. The paint is GM white with candy green sides. The motor: Date code 327, 1968 It has been done with aluminum heads an Edelbrock intake Holley 600. Has billet pulleys. The rear: Ford nine inch with 10 and a half inch drums. Posi unit with gears that feel to me like 456's as my best guess. The transmission: Automatic on the floor however has 4 speed pedals. Has a stall I would guess again around 3000- 3500. What I do know is all the new I put in and it runs in the thousands. I have a stack of receipts less than 90 days old to prove this. New: Both front and rear bumpers: This includes the entire grill assembly and license plate holder and emblems. Weld rims front and rear new front tires. Most all the front suspension and bushings. ball joints and springs. tie rods and links. I replaced the steering box and rag joint. New master cylinder proportioning valve and rear wheel cylinders. Disc brake front, Some brake lines. Fronts are braided lines. The engine: I replaced the thermostat and installed an electric fan which works on start up. I installed a radiator catch can. The ignition is all new MSD. Coil cap rotor wires plugs. The trans: Had a leaky gasket so new pan gasket and screen. Fresh trans fluid. The interior: The interior was worse for wear and had a 8 point roll cage. I'm older so the side bars were cut out immediately. I have them if your heart desires climbing a cage to get in. The rest of the cage is in. I replaced both door panels, arm rest and both door handles and all four window cranks. Although being tubbed the rears are for show. I replaced the carpet and installed a radio delete panel to clean up the dash. New glove box and lock. All inner wind lace, side and front and rear headliner trim. This includes the headliner and visors and rear view mirror, roll bar padding. Door sills. I also went through the inner door window cranks. Doors open close like new and windows up down smooth. New door and trunk rubber seals. The car originally had tunnel ram, Since the change I bought a new firebird 400 hood and had it painted to match. The firewall was smoothed has no heater and looks really great. I planned to replace the windshield it has a stone chip not a crack. And a wiper scratch. I did not do this change but planned for it. So I will include new windshield stainless molding for the new owner and new clips. Everything I mentioned that I had changed is brand new parts. I never raced the car so don't ask how fast it is. I bought it as a project, I did what was mentioned and now I'm selling it as a project. There will be no tire kicking or games. I am listing the car as an on going project pro street: This was an old pro street drag car which has come a long way from sitting in a barn I would place the build somewhere in the 80's?. What it needs: Seat belts, Seats bolted in, Wiper blades, Maybe a windshield if you're picky. If you want to do any long trips a more street friendly stall converter. The car was updated with painless wiring and everything worked. Somehow I lost the tail lights when interior was done? There is power already back there as that is where the battery is located and electric fuel pump. This should be easy. Paint is older but looks nice and shines. It does have a couple bubbles coming very low behind drivers door to be expected of a barn find but nothing crazy still a great cruise night pro street. (easily) Floors are great with no issues same as the frame. The frame is tied front to rear. I only drove the car down my street and back a couple times before all the new changes, so very little drive time since I have owned it. AGAIN IF YOU PLAN TO SHOW UP AND THINK YOU WON'T NEED TO DO ANYTHING BUT ADD WAX, MOVE ON. (that only works on t.v. no gas monkey garage players!)On going project means just that. My price is less than full blown project rot boxes on here! Won't find another 68 like this for my reserve. Bid to own not to play. This car is so worthy of the next level. I couldn't let it lay in a barn somewhere and I hope it goes to a great home. Paper work is in my name and current. Clear transferrable registration. This is what New York uses as titles for 1970 or older cars. I sold cars all over the world with no issues. Again, car is being listed as an on going project in as is condition. CAR CAN BE SOLD OUTSIDE EBAY AT ANY TIME UNLESS RESERVE IS MET. DO NOT WAIT TO BID. LISTED LOCALLY AS SALE AND OR SWAPS. THANKS FOR LOOKING GOOD LUCK HAPPY BIDDING. On Jan-21-14 at 12:39:25 PST, seller added the following information: I failed to mention the spare hood used for a tunnel ram set up comes with the car if you want it. It is a steel hood measures 50 inches by 60 inches let your shipper know if you decide to take it. On Jan-23-14 at 19:43:47 PST, seller added the following information: TO HELP ANSWER THE MOST COMMON QUESTION. THE RESERVE ON THIS CAR IS ONLY 10,000. THIS WILL BE THE ONLY TIME AT THIS NUMBER.
