He said that he could have the car running for $1500 total, excluding the interior.

So tell him to remove & keep the motor, trans, rear end and then GIVE you the car

I wonder what he thought when you told him that!

I don't understand what he was thinking. That car is barely usable as a donor car. There's nothing to donate! Even at $300 basically what you're buying is a vin and a cowl! Everything else will need to be replaced or worked on!
I would be suspect of the driveline and wouldn't even consider taking it with the car!

ha ha ha. Good one. I don't even think I will bother. He was so into the fact that this 12 year old rebuild was worth something. And it possibly could be by some NASCAR mechanics, he did give there names but at that point I wasn't even interested anymore. But the car wasn't driven in 12 years!!!!!!!! Not to say you can't fire it right up but with other Novas that are running starting at $4500, why go through the hassle.

HAHA, I'll check with the guy this weekend when I go to look at this car. He said he wants 7k after he replaces a quarter in the fall this year. I asked him if I could take it now for a lower price and do the work myself since I basically rebuilt the chevelles body ( No biggy). He said yea that would be okay. This was all on the phone. I'll check the car out this weekend and see if he has anything else. And I'll post some pics and more info!

By the way, that guy must be smokin something. I'd take it for $200 or less w/o the motor/trans.

we have a saying at work when we take in a pile of junk in on trade "squish it!

" I've tried to "fix?" stuff like this (JayR this is where you chime in) it is not worth it, too many decent cars out there still, just takes time ti dig for them. I'd rather spend 2 days with a truck and trailer driving to a dryer climate than a year on my back welding in floors-Chirs
