    been watching this one too but looks like bubba had it



    At first looks OK but look at the rear end looks like a awful job filling in the exhaust holes.

    gear shift boot is wrong

    radio is wrong

    wrong screws in throughout the interior

    engine bay is a mess as for as original goes....could be a good driver tho

    the rear exhaust thats been covered up gets me tho I've never seen one that looks that bad!

    They didn't make any attempt to fill in the rear. That panel is sold for converting non side exhaust to side exhaust.

    The intent, is to offer extra material to cut out to fill the hole on the other side.

    Thety should have cut straight down, and used the extra piece to bond in the exhaust hole on the quarter.


    I personnally wouldn't knock cars like this too much. It seams to me top notch 69's are few and far between. Let alone a 427 Roadster.

    Most will need cosmetic and mechanical work done to them to bring them up to speed.

    This one looks like a decent project if the price is right and you like the color.

      Lots of wear in the interior and the carpet's pretty rough.

      But I agree. Looks like it would be a great driver and the perfect future project.

        well the seller told me as a response to my email they have already turned down 45k for the car...

        To me that would have been too much for it so GL to them thats all I can say.

          Hi Brandon,
          I think the car LOOKS nice and that's what matters to many buyers. It's hard to tell what it's really worth or what number of $$$ it would take to change owners.
          I believe the side exhaust covers are the one piece fiberglass covers that have been painted silver. They could well tell the story of this car.
          Regards,
          Alan

          PS: The first time I went to look at it I could only get 3 pictures, now E-BAY says the biding has ended. Darn, missed another one!
