Is that red? I dont think so
Well redish primer is what I mean...
mdh- sorry it took so long! Anywhase after seeing the pic's on the computer, it has to be the same car. They migh have added some new black primer in spots. But it did have some black on it in a few spots when I saw it.
I took the bluesmobile to a car show a few months back. Had a guy approach me, and we started talking. He mentioned he had a sister car to mine. A '73 fury (that has been posted in the for sale section on here from craigslist a while back). I asked if it was for sale. He said yes, so I went to check it out. On the way he mentioned his son also had an old fury vert for sale. This caught my attention. I said I would love to check that out as well.
He took me to his house, and the vert was stuffed in a small one car garage in the back yard. He said the car ran (but it wouldnt start that night due to some wiring problem). However the motor did sound decent while trying to turn over. The door pad's were off, and they need to be redone. The bottoms were blown out in some spots. The car has/had a pretty solid body, with a bit of rust in the quarters, and in the middle passenger side section of the trunk floor. The under side seemed solid. The only thing that made me a little worried was the dutchman panel. The rest of the interior was in o.k. shape. The dash pad was in great shape! The car definitely needs a restoration, all the trim, and everything was off of it, but still with the car in the trunk. However like polara71 said, it is a big block, high optioned '70 vert. I fell in love with it. It does obviously have a bit of rust but this did not scare me to much. However my standards are a lot less then a lot of people on here. My bluesmobile would be considered a parts car in most eye's on here. lol
The guy had acquired it from a sick friend, who had no time to finish it. He had pulled it apart to redo/paint, but never got around to it. So the owner I knew got it for his son, who seemed to not have much interest in it.
I offered to trade my newport for it. However the guy got back to me a few day's later saying he was not interested cause my car had a sunroof. His son wanted 2k for it.
I'm thinking since its put back together, and looks to have some new primer spots, and obviously in a different location, someone grabbed it, and is trying to flip it. I did not get any pic's of it, as it was dark, and in a cramped area...
