I have a feeling this was much nicer before Brandon owned it. There may be time to save it.

At $1k, the new parts alone may make it worth the deal. No photo of the engine bay.

Possibly has a cold weather '230' block. Might be too late production but worth a look if local.
 
I actually do think I remember seeing that car for sale, maybe a year ago or something. Back then it had all its hubcaps and wasn't surrounded by garbage. I have a feeling that with a weekend's worth of detailing, and a roller full of Rust-Oleum for the roof, one could make a pretty presentable car from this. Unfortunately Ohio is about the Derby capital of the United States. I would actually go grab it because it's not that far from me, but I have asked loved ones to report me, and then utilize red flag laws so the state the state takes away access to my ATM card, if I bring another project car home.
 
Says it is sold at 14 hours after listing. Not surprised.


It’s a late 72 with a 73 body. Factory 400 big block. New gas tank, tires, carbs rebuilt, tuneup, and more bs that I can’t remember. Got it running good then broke the fuel line jacking it up. Simple and cheap fix, but I’m tired of the car at this point and I’d rather see it rot than fix it. Top was sun damaged bad so I removed about 95% of it. Figured I’d paint it all one color and be done with it. Has a small hole under the back window. Make me an offer
