Hey guys...I've been gone along time!! Anyway I generally know how these threads go but sadly I lost my grandfather and my father in 3 months time. I have several vehicles left to me. I am going to keep as many as I can but I think I want to let my father's 63 Newport go. It is a 4 dr that is totally restored with 361 2bbl. It has dealer installed AC (it worked last year but not this year, my father told me it has a slow leak somewhere). What makes the car interesting is that it is a 3peed stick. Gearbox was totally rebuilt and heavy duty clutch, motor runs well, had all new gaskets put in but was not rebuilt. Car I think has about 77k original miles on it and came out of New Mexico. There is no glass in this car except there was a small dent in the rear that had to be repaired (dent pulled out glass to just smooth out, car was done right). To be expected with any restore all brakes and systems either rebuilt or serviced. One thing he did do is add power steering as it was manual. All done with correct parts. Even being a 4dr it has won many shows. The car shifts well and moves quite well for a small block in such a heavy car. I took it out few weeks ago and put about 40 miles on it, it really drives great.
Anyway I know this should be in the forsale, but I wanted to see if anyone is interested in it pretty unique car, and honestly what is this thing worth? I figured I would unload a few cars and finally get my 68 done up or sell them all and just be done with classic cars or play cars in general. Sorta loosing interest with the loss of my father. Oh I live in Buffalo NY now, if anyone in the area....
