I'd say 10K for the car and part it out! |

This was on ebay about 5 or 6 months ago. Salvage yard told me he paid $25K for it and just wnated to move it. Maybe this guy bought it and decided it is more work than he can afford. |

This car has been around for sale for a long time, I was working on getting it about a year ago but the guy who said they had all the parts only knew of where maybe to get the parts. Car turned out to be more of a parts pile then a rebuildable project.

The odometer shot you cant read

All the dents in the roof prove, to me, that the frame is bent. How else could they occur......the car doesn't appear to be a roll-over.
This is a PARTS car!!!!!!!....and the bidding seems to confirm this. |

>>This stinks of a bent chasis....<<
Yeah, otherwise he'd fix it himself. He acquired all the parts but decides not to fix it or sell it with all the parts. And then puts the brilliant quote Jerry posted.
To get a chassis trued again is no small job. This doesn't look like a feasible project. If indeed there are chassis problems I feel sorry for whoever purchases the car and does the obvious fixes only. A bent chassis is VERY dangerous at speed. Had the misfortune of having a friend of mine get in a serious car crash because of it.

Too much of a project for me thanks. It looks like too much fun. I'm not allowed to have that much fun. |

The doors closes perfectly yet there is a huge gap on the right side of the car between the door and the rear quarter panel. This stinks of a bent chasis.... |

"All of this is easy to fix with a lot of time and money searching for the parts".... there's a strong selling point!
