Default Advice please x


How much would it take to restore (roughly) and how much should you be paying for one in this condition?

i would not pay more then3,000 USD. restore, hmm, well i didnt read the whole description but some where around 5-10 thousand depending on where you take it. if you do it yourself then it will be cheaper. im guessin new floor pans, looks like a new quarter panel (if your gona do it, do it right) new paint, maybe new trunk pan and you still have paint, interior and motor. thats just for restore, if your looking to mod it (maybe for track racing?) then its gona to run you more.

i take on project people say cant be done, and to restore that your looking 20k (its always a safe estimate, if its less your like hey i saved money, and if its more your like IM a dip****)......it is workable though,a lot of work

sometimes you can find a good one you can afford my 68 sat in a garage for 7 years but only things wrong was carb needed a rebuild and front valance was smashed up got it for 3 grand us.it did take me 6 months of looking at rusted out over priced ones to find it so keep your chin up and dont stop looking.
