Looks mostly complete, so not a bad price for a project car starting point.

Post car too.

That isn't a bad starting price. Never know till you see how bad the rust is. Looks like a hardtop to me....

Looks like its been deleted already. Must have been the 68 in St. Louis Park that was posted earlier today.

 I guess somebody else thought it was a good price too!

I like the "Don't call with dumb questions" note... I'm betting that's why the first ad was removed.

 

Looks like a decent car for the price, as long as the frame and floors aren't too bad. If it was a '69 I'd be considering it (why? I don't know...)

I figured someone told him they would take it over the phone and when they got there were "appalled" at what they saw...

He's right, people see a cheap price and think it will be in great condition.

And really, WHY would you need another car ?? I don't understand people who keep buying more cars and never finish the ones they have...  You have a REAL SS car that needs some love.

I just noticed the price drop.......at $1500, this IS getting tempting to go see....

How's that GTO, and the LS5 car coming along?

Really, right now I have no interest in doing anything with the SS car... it's too nice to make a race car out of it. I kind of want to build something that's a beater/track-rat that I don't care too much if I put it in a fence. I should be looking for a  Miata...

Like I said, I don't understand this line of thought.....I just live it.

Sounds like you've moved away from the classic cars as built and now want to modify and race more. You should sell that SS to me so I can buy another lift for it to sit on and wait for "SOMEDAY"...

          I have a '69 K10 in waiting too...
