I was expecting worse by the sounds of it but that's not to bad at all. If the frame ends up being really bad under there you could always find a donor car that has a better frame to drop it on maybe.

I agree. That is a very workable project, finances depending. I like the GT wheels.

For some reason I keep hearing a Henry Mancini soundtrack in the background when I look at those pictures....

I'm not sure its a GT, has GT wheels, gas cap and fog lights, but no gt emblems inside or out. When I jacked it up out of the ground what was left of the exaust and the floors stayed. All in all it will make a good project. I paid $3,000.00 The motor and trans is out. Original 289 was scrapped and a 79 302 was rebuilt but never installed.

Run the car's vin number through this will tell you if it's a GT or not.

Thanks for posting that. I haven't watched that in years. It's still a great car chase. I know. Off topic.
