I have let it sit long enough

I need things that I cannot afford

 

 

and I would like a board member to have it and fix it back up...

 

 

I know I can make more on parting it but it's too nice over all for that.

 

500 or best offer

 

 

pics these are current

no rust worth mentioning and great interior!

clear title.

mileage is hard to determine.

 

I can get those pics.

 

it over heated (water neck cracked and never showed hot on the gauge) and coolant mixed with oil

so it lost the head or gasket or both.

 

I pulled the head.

a lot of the thread for the exhaust side studs is toast.

timing chain guides were very worn with pieces of the coating in the oil pan

 

pistons/rings seemed fine

number 3 bore has pitting from having water in it for a week between the blowing of the head and me taking it apart.

 

 

slap an enigne in and be done

or prep a head and buy new timing. gaskets and be done.

suspension is tip top car handled like a champ

(steering is tight too)

 

I have swapped in a semi-digital dash

I would prolly swap it back out cause it only goes to 85.... lol

 

this car ran strong! pulled from 60-100 so fast I couldn't believe it

has 88 computer

needs front glass. (doesn't block driver's view, but looks crappy)

 

solid life long alabama car

I just feel like holding till I have more money to fix it is being selfish to the car.

 

sending you a PM

TTT some folks have shown an interest

 

but not enough yet to come get her.

 

I just want the car to go to a good place.

make me an offer!

 

I don't want her to sit here while I'm broke it upsets me to have her here and not have any money to work on her.

this is a great car!

 

interior pics coming soon as per requests..

Well alright. I was about to tell you I was going to come look at it regardless of interior pics and if it was like the pics I was gonna get it.

it's exactly like the pics

 

I'd rather go whole than get parted...

 

I keep having changes of heart

 

but I just don't have the time or money to play with another car right now.

 

a good used engine would have you running in a day....

and some parts from dad could have you on the road in a couple.

 

if you are still interested you should give me a call.

we'll work something out.

I gave a quick rinse while I got my stuff out.

 

needs cleaned up but it's straight and the interior is complete.

 

Oscar is coming to look next Friday if he doesn't want it I'll do a little more cleaning and get more shots
