original 6 cylinder coupe, Lime Gold original color...nothing special about it...
Well, I really really REALLY don't want to do this, but, due to my career, I might have to let it go. I have had the car since 1997. I had it media blasted on a rotisserie, etch primer, new floor pans, new right rear quarter, new battery tray all welded in. The car currently sits in the green primer shown above. The rest of the body panels (front fenders, doors, hood, trunk lid) are in good shape, but I need to get them stripped and primered. NO RUST at all on this car. Evey last inch of rust has been blasted out and replaced/repaired.
To go with it, I have a brand new set of subframe connectors, 6 point roll cage, and a brand new SSBC disc brake conversion, as well as front end kit, and new reverse eye springs.
I also have an 8 inch, with rebuild kit, 4.11:1 gears, spool. C-5 trans rebuilt to hold about 450 HP. Dissassembled 289, good shape, pretty much complete minus starter and alternator.
The rest of the pieces parts are in boxes, and a person COULD put the car back to original shape. Seats (black-front and rear) are in very good shape. I planned on going the T/A coupe route, no interior, just gauges seats and a cage.
I see the prices of coupes aren't very high. I would like to think I could get around $6000 for this as is. But, I thought I would get your thoughts first. Should I finish the final body work, or sell as is? I hate to put any more money into it, I'm at a point where I spend about 8 months a year in the middle east, and time is a HUGE issue. Oh, and I am going to move to England, oh, and my wife is having our 3rd kid....sob sob...what do you think? I can take more pics if req'd.
