If you try to buy one the correct way... ie backing out costs. You will end up having to get someone to pay you to take it away in order to makethe money wash out...

Pictures and more info will get the questions answered. As for the battery.............I'm slightly suspect it is in fact the original. Starter & Battery replaced but the battery hung in there ?

I said that he had the original battery. I'm sure it is garbage. But he kept it like pretty much everything. This guy doesn't throw nothin out. He has all records of oil changes, repairs and even the original brochure and the purchase agreement from the dealer when he ordered the car.I did take some pics of the car but I don't know how to post them. The car has some rott in the very lower part of the body, quarter behind tire, bottom of doors, bottom of fender behind tire, gas tank straps broke. The car has been sitting since '76 store inside a POLE BARN. Everything is there for the car except the original starter and altenator. It has 92600 miles on the odometer. It is an original Canadian car (sold in Canada). Here is the list of options:
Soft ray tinted glass, fold down rear seat, rear defrost, center console, 3.55 ratio posi rear axle, power disk brakes, engine block heater, M21 tranny, sport styled steering wheel, special instrumentation, am/fm push button radio, special front bumper, auxiliary lighting, special performance equipment (Z28), cortez silver on dark blue vinyl interior. This car cost $4712.45 when he bought it new. He even traded in a '65 Plymouth Fury III w/440 4spd for it.

So it's a POLE BARN find...? Does that mean it was sitting on a dirt floor?
When gas tank straps break from rust, that is generally a bad sign... |

Silver/Blue guts sounds cool. Nice options too.
As for the original owner/original battery thing.............. it ain't ALL that uncommon! ![]()

Yes,gas tank traps that break is not a good thing.How does the car look underneath over all???? I wouldn't pay more than 20k for it only because of it's cost to restore.

I guess that battery should be sitting in the car with the positive side at the fender. I would like to see that.
