Re: It's a SS396 post sedan.Are they worth anything?
Hi guys I'm Steve. I'm the guy that bought this rough car. Lol I found the car on kijiji being offered as a bonus to the purchase of a 68 6 cyl Malibu. I emailed the guy not expecting him to want to sell the 69 SS396 4 speed body separately. He then responded and said "what will you offer for it?" I then called him and asked him a few questions about the overall condition of it, and if there were any parts left on it. He said "not many but it does have the SS hood, and a factory tach dash still in it". I then asked him to give me the numbers off the cowl tag. I asked him what he needed for the car and he said $800. I decided to make the 3 hour drive with the trailer to get it. It is really rough, but is really cool to find such a car sitting in the bush with the 5500 tach, 4 speed column, clutch pedals, BB hood, perfect dash pad, and the nice Canadian cowl tag. I offered him $500 and we settled at $550. I think I did ok even if the body is really poor. I sent away to GM this morning and got the vehicle package. Ill post the pics of it.
