Doug -- how about providing more detail on the car, (i.e. engine, trans, rear, interior condition, etc...) --- folks will problaby be in a better position to share an opinion on the car's value
355 / 4 bolt (labeled as 350/350 when purchased) I'll post actual engine mileage later this evening when i can verify it from installation records.
Edelbrock AirGap manifold, Carter 625 AFB, New Stock Distributor converted to Pertronix, Holley Annihilator Ignition box, Jet™-coated 'chrome' shorty headers, roller tip rockers, Fluidampr Harmonic Damper, chrome pan, aluminum Valve covers.
Turbo 350 w/shift kit
10 bolt rear w/3.08 gears (was 2.56)
Interior is very nice. no rips or tears (headliner is original and has a couple minor splits), Dash pad is new and has been covered since installed a few years ago. Have new rear shelf panel but needs to be installed. (i've been too lazy to remove the rear window defrost and two speakers to do the replacement)
I have a new rear carpet section that i haven't put in yet either. (again, no time and lazyness)
Nice Console with Autometer round gauge panel, 4 gages (fuel, oil, temp, and clock), Stock shifter.
Instrument panel is good, radio section has been cut and a combo CD/Am,Fm installed, Speedo works, Tach (in the right side where a Fuel gage would normally be) works. All lights, buzzers, and horns work.
As far as i can tell the Cowl Induction hood is a GM original. It has the electrical solenoid and flapper. Also has the activation switch on the gas pedal arm. All works perfectly.
Was originally an Air Condition car. A previous owner tore the engine side stuff all out. The passenger compartment 'stuff' is all there as far as i can tell. I replaced the heater core and fabricated a heater box to cover up the hole on the engine side so i would have heat in the Winter. Works great and looks stock.
Floor pan behind drivers seat is rusted out and a cover panel was riveted in. (previous owner) I have a replacement panel but, you guessed it, no time- and since i sold my Hobart 110 unit, i don't have the equipment to do the repair. :sad:
There is some rust under the paint behind each rear wheel. Would need be cut out and replaced. Might be other rust in hidden areas. Hard to tell for sure until panels are cut out to see what's what.
I have new 5-leaf springs with all the component hardware, and sub-frame connectors to install.
Car was painted by the previous owner, in his garage. He WAS NOT a paint and body Guy that's for sure. It's
rough and would most likely need to be stripped. From 20 feet it's the 'bomb' and i get thumbs up and "nice car" all the time. Car was originally Daytona Yellow. (7676) Upholstery is very nice. Drivers seat was re-done a couple years ago. Cloth Seat covers are always on.
This car is driven every day, rain or shine. But is always garaged when not driven.
I have had very little problem with it and with one pump of the gas pedal and turn of the key she fires right up.
I've thought about putting a "For Sale / Best Offer" sign in the window and wait to see what happens. Maybe i'll give it a try.
Thanks for the suggestions
