I just figured I'd ask, what's it worth?
Needs rear quarters, truck, rear inner/outer fenders, dash, might as well do the roof etc...

I have all the glass, powerglide(original), m-20, 327/210hp, but have camelhumps. Original power steering/brakes car with AC. I'm not that interested in selling it, i'm pretty much holding onto it to restore SLOWLY over my whole life... :D

The subframe (http://www.camaro327.com/68/Subframe.htm) was restored and powdercoated all nice and neat, then i stupidly left the car at a "restoration" shop to get sandblasted and have the floors and lower cowls replaced, then the subframe went all down hill from there and the shop "fixed" it by spraying everything with glossy black paint to cover up my rusting hardware and such. thanks guys :thumbsup: now i have gloss black paint protecting the powdercoated subframe.

Nice! an original black custom interior bench seat car. Granada Gold with a black vinyl top. Are you going to do it to original? Who cares what it's worth, as long as you are having fun restoring it (which it looks like) Enjoy it when it's done.

This will help you decode your trim tag http://camaros.org/numbers.shtml just scroll down for exterior and interior info. Looks to be Ash Gold with custom bench seat for the factory.

Ash gold looks green, depending on the light it is in. That is a pretty rare combination!

The 715 on your trim tag specifies Black Custom Interior, Bench Seat. G-Ash Gold, 2-Black Vinyl Top. Sorry about the Granada mix up earlier, half asleep.

as far as the custom interior... is that the door panels and stuff or does that mean just different than buckets, cause i bought it with the standard interior, but i bought it from some dirtybag that probably took all the good stuff off anyways...
