Thank you for adding to the story guys, he didn’t mention any of that but I spoke to him earlier today. LOL he did send a couple more pictures to me though.. one of the trunk wells, lols clean and solid, and the manual AC and VIN tag of course.. I have to admit this is extremely tempting.

I've been off a couple of days with a killer flu... worst I've ever enjoyed.

So, to play devil's advocate here, would this one plus the sunroof car yield all the stuff necessary to make one nice and one driver?

BTW... don't worry about your ***... stick with us and you'll have to sleep with one eye open for life. :D

Well.. the sunroof car is rougher than I’d hoped and certainly not the shape the previous CLUELESS owner lead me to believe.. but I’m hopeful that with $$$$ it’ll be what she once was, as to the other Copper car! I’m waiting on additional pictures of KEY areas of concern.. I will say that the current owner is certainly more knowledgeable of this car than the other which makes me more comfortable if a deal were to occur.
Get your couch ready for me though Jeff... I might need it. :poke::rolleyes:
 
Not sure how you'd feel about it, but if you didn't mind the slight difference in color, you'd certainly have a nice interior to swap.

John: Given my own experience, I hafta say that having a drive-able "parts car" is a really good way to go. . .

John, as I have stated in my opinions of many other Formal's. Photo's of Formal's can be VERY deceiving and don't really tell you the true condition of the car. I highly recommend that you put your eyeballs on this car yourself before pulling the trigger. Unless you are going to use the car as a parts car....you can easily be in for $12k-$15k in bodywork and paint.

As much as I love my 1978 NYB....I would of been extremely better off by finding a rust free car out west and paying extra for the rust free part.

Amen Bob.. my love for these cars certainly consumed me and my wallet.. I planned on putting money into it anyway, BUT! an cleaner head start would have been nice. NOW! Finding a trustworthy shop that WANTS to do the work, the few that I’ve visited shy away.. it would appear that no one wants to work on these old girls anymore.. I know there ARE shops out there that will, just gotta find THE one..
