John Lanning and I went to look at a car for sale this week. The mechanical work is pretty much done. The car runs and drives, but the body needs to be done. The body seems sound, most is down to bare metal, needs a few spots cleaned up, and smoothed, blocked, and painted. It comes with all the parts to finish, new carpet, all new weatherstripping. The car has a 350 v8, with a 68 camaro powerglide and the corvair diff. with the 4 Spyder gears. The 350 has remanufactured heads, stock cam, new rings and bearings, with an Edelbrock Performer intake, and a quadrajet carburetor. The powerglide has a manual valve body. The car has 15 x 7 Chevy rally wheels, with nearly new 205/65r15 tires. John or I have pictures we can email or text to you if you are interested. He is asking $7500, which we think is high based on the amount of work to finish the car, but if you want to do the bodywork and paint it, it could be right for you. The owner seems negotiable, but I don't think that he will accept a lowball price. He has a lot of money in parts for the car.
