Looking at a couple of vehicles. Input needed.
Im looking at a couple of cars local to me right now. The first is a 1970 Camaro. The engine is a 350 rebuilt 500 miles ago supposedly. TH350 trans that has a small leak somewhere. Discs/Drums. there is rust. needs new window/door gaskets. engine/trans run good. trunk has a sheetmetal panel riveted in. Paint is good from far, mako style from up close. Here are some pics. Floors look solid from below. He lowered his price from $7500 to $6500.

Excellent shape, it's very well maintained. have a straight 6 w/ 3 on the tree. 4 wheel drums. No rust. He is asking $7500 http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u...0/IMG_1506.jpg |
i know that it needs some work but these car are getting hard to find that are all together i would take 5500 or 6K and see what happens

Looks like the Camaro had some serious rust issues, and they slapped a cheap paint job on it to temporarily make it shine. As long as you like doing sheetmetal repair, that would be an okay project.
The Elco is clean, but I guess I'm just not a fan of Chevelle trucks. I know a few guys that have dumped serious coin into Elcos, and when they sold the cars they came nowhere near the price of a comparible year/condition Chevelle. |
the camaro is gonna need LOTS of new panels... and you can see all the int was spray painted so chances are youll need a new int also... i dont think that cars worth 6-7k... not a big fan of the elky... i say keep looking for a 70-73 camaro though.

I agree. My first car was a 70 Camaro and I loved it. Keep looking... I don't think this one's worth the asking price when you consider the extent of body work needed.
|
keep looking!
That camaro isnt worth anywhere near 6 grand.
the cowl rust issues are bad enough to make me keep looking And I own a restoration shop. That car could be fixed as can anything. But 3k Is a fair price for that car. just cause its shiny doesnt make it wortht he asking price. |
