I bought this car 5 years ago off ebay and got screwed. It was supposed to be a daily driver that ran and looked ok. IT WAS FAR FROM IT!!!!! I was left no choice but to fix it, im an autobody tech and the last thing I wanted to do was to work on my car during my time off. So here is a list of what Ive done. Engine and Trans were rebuilt, And I installed the following brand new, Master cylinder and brake booster, Steering box,carburetor,fuel lines on motor, complete engine wire harness from firewall to engine including all the lights and horns etc. calipers, rotors, pads, AC compressor, Power steering pump, motor mounts, belts, Y pipe coming off exhaust manifolds, battery, condensor, heater core, all coolant hoses, all rubber brake lines, Every single component of the front suspension....EVERYTHING! All new rubber for the windows, trunk and doors, 4 brand new tires, while engine was out I painted the engine bay including the engine and front section of frame. Its basically brand new from the winsheild forward. I have a used dashboard, rear springs, engine decals, lock cylinders for trunk and driver door. This car runs really good but needs some TLC to be a perfect daily driver. All the hard work is done now it just needs some minor body work and paint to be beautiful again. I have twin boys coming next month and Im assuming I wont have much time to finish this car and plus Im going to need the room for strollers now. I have over $25,000.00 invested in this car NOT including my labor. Feel free to email me with any questions.

When I say "20 footer" I mean it looks amazing from 20ft away. There are other things that do not work and may be missing on this vehicle such as trunk lock cylinder but I have one for the buyer in the vehicle so it can be installed. Also the turn signals do not work, needs a turn signal cam. The engine runs pretty good but due to the choke and fast idle cam and possible vacuum hoses not being adjusted correctly can be the cause. Like I said Everything was relpaced new and now its just a matter of adjusting things and getting the vacuum correct. If your expecting a perfectly running car DONT BID!!! Before bidding please email me to go over any specifics that may not be listed. This is a great car to restore, The hard greasy miserable part is done. Dont pass up this oppertunity! I spent $1400.00 alone just on rubber seals, $600.00 for a engine wire harness, $1000.00 for the transmission. I spent $6000.00 on rockauto.com on parts! $1000.00 on tires, $50.00 for a original 1968 fuel filter. If you are unsure of anything please email me before bidding and ill get back to you as soon as I can. I don't want to screw anyone like I got screwed years ago. ASK QUESTIONS!!!! Having said all of that keep in mind I drive this vehicle on the highway at speeds over 65mph. I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime.
