Re: just picked up christine car..
 

Bill is right in the ball park 5 grand it would have to be clean and with out any rust These cars were known to rust look realy good on the top of the fender above the head lights It must be a plaza or a savoy as it has a flat head six belveders all came with v8s amd more chrome trim on the sides a 2 door belevder is worth more money the flat head also came with a 2 speed power flite still is a neat car https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gifso the question is leave it stock OR build a sleeper https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif me I would pay about 3-3500 for a plaza or a savoy
the picture of the one I saw at alantic city back in 05 was a a plane jane savoy I did not look fast BUT with that 440 in it it was a sleeper and a fun car https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

I spent quite some time drooling over that one also, but it was a '58. Not much difference though.

It's no scam. If you check out my thread on the 72 T/A you will see how good this stuff actually is. It is downright amazing how it removes rust without touching anything else.

steve I understand but as I have been reading they hope is to derust Miss Belveder and get it runing and back to the road I dont think that engine will ever turn over and think they are wasteing peoples money trying to bring it back from the dead I really do not think this car will ever come back but I might be worng this is going to get ineresting if it happens https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

Re: just picked up christine car..
 

Getting it running is a totally different thing. I will say that those two emissions solenoids that I had were rusted solid inside and were shorted out. After I soaked them in the stuff for a few days, they freed up and worked like new. That was amazing. I would agree that trying to get a V8 running without disassembling it is a futile concept since all the gaskets will be gone. The major mechanical assemblies would have to be dissassembled and the parts soaked again and then reassembled.

I think heir goal is to stabilize/preserve the condition of the car, not to make it a complete running and driving car again.

Great PR for the company.
