----Just depends on two things. 1 How much you can do yourself. 2 What else are you going to find. I can also see some sort of problem with one or both T-tops. What about the frame and the windshield header? They frequently rust thru. Is the drivetrain all OK? I'm also not liking the comment "we haven't started it yet". That would seem to be an obvious setback. I am also thinking it may have been painted at sometime in its life. Whats under the repaint if that's the case. The price right now would be enticing if it stays near there, but a qualified person really should look it over....Bill S
----Also just noticed that the door panels are incorrect. It's a deluxe interior and the door panels are not deluxe! Also,,, look at the tilt column lever. They hardly ever rust lke that. Cheap to replace but says something about the rest of the car! Last edited by olredalert; 03-10-2022 at 02:59 PM. |

Yep, that tilt lever jumped right in my face and goes right along with the bubbles from corrosion under the glass. With all the other issues you pointed out, the price right now is probably all it should bring, but we know it will go well beyond that with the market frenzy.
Mechanical doesn't bother me, but it does add to the cost of getting it road worthy, if the engine is toast from sitting too. Glass work is NOT in my future. I have enough sheetmetal replacement ahead of me to keep me busy until I'm 100 yrs old... ![]()
