Great deal for 5 Benjamins!

Mint nose, good front fenders, 3.73 posi rear end.

Almost had a heart attack when I saw the 454 under the hood, but of course he wouldn't let that go for the 500 Sad

LOL it kinda threw me when I saw the console installed backwards!

Unfortunately it's too far gone to restore, half the roof is rotted away as well as the rear quarters....

Oh well I'll have her reduced to a pile of parts soon enough.

How's the steering column I've been looking for a tilt floor shift since I've started the 4 speed conversion

The column is getting transplanted to mine along with the factory cruise control.

Who were these "bastards" & "a-holes" that got your parts?

I'm confused. (but that's nothing new)

i had some extra parts in a garage. some a-hole desided that i did not need the parts. so he scrapped them all.
14 columns,body parts,alternators,starters, my schwinn 5 speed,and i bunch of other stuff. i guesstamated that it was close to 3000.00 worth of hard to find parts....
