I bought this car in 2008 with the hopes of doing a high end LS car with AirRide, etc.
The economy is not getting any better in Georgia, so it is time for it to go. I bought the car from a gentleman in Florida as a running and driving car with a 350 and a 4-speed.
I immediately took the car completely apart, had all body parts and the frame media blasted. I then had a new set of floor pans professionally installed by my paint and body guy. There were not any panel replacements on the car, just a few small patch panels in the left quarter, around the rear window, and in the lower front fender. The body is very, very good. I replaced the floor pans because it was easier and cleaner to replace the whole thing instead of trying to do individual patches.
The frame is fantastic. It had only a light surface coat of rust that very easily went away. I had the frame boxed in the rear for rigidity, and we put a plate on the top of the center section of the frame to strengthen it. It is the same procedure performed on "Red Sled", if you guys watch MuscleCar on Spike TV.
Every other part for the car is boxed up (see pics) There is nothing missing except a motor and trans. I sold the 350 and 4-speed. The glass is great, and the bumpers need to be rechromed to be in show condition. I have every piece of trim and stainless for the car. Some of it is new NOS stuff that I have accumulated.
I had the car sprayed with a light coat of black or gray primer (ran out of black)after the car was blasted and repaired because I did not want to get surface rust. The car is ready for body and paint, with very, very little body work to be ready to spray it. Absolutely no sheet metal will need to be replaced.
I hate that I need to sell it because you just can't find the nice ones any more. I wanted to put it on this forum in the hopes that it would wind up with a true enthusiast. The car was originally a white with blue interior 6-cylinder.
I have a Florida title from the person I bought it from. Georgia will not title cars this old. I also have a current registration and will provide a bill of sale.
Asking price is $13,000 because that is what I have in it. If you are interested, give me a call because I am open to offers.

I also have a kit to install an LS motor. It includes the mounts and a set of headers with an oil pan (all parts).
