Hello from Minnesota. Sounds like a solid starting point.

 

[ConnerIRNMN]

Actually i started with a mess. She was parked since 1982. Ive worked on her day and night for 2 months nonstop. Well worth it

 

[ConnerIRNMN]

All original. Only updates were carb rebuild, new master, new wheel cylinders, shoes, and full tune up plugs wires cap rotor condenser points ballast. Someone stole the ac condenser and radiator from the original owner. Other then that, i got her running and driving and all in tact. Solid solid car.

Welcome to the site from the Motor City! If that trailer was any smaller...

 

[ConnerIRNMN]

Yes the trailer actually took some pain. Wasnt any other way to load it nose first from the garage i dragged it out of. And it bent the dove tail about 4 inches down. Lol yacht. Thanks for the welcome guys.

Great color comb! Welcome to the forum!

 

[ConnerIRNMN]

Thanks man. Apparently the car was already being hated on before i joined. Just came to find out. Guess i probably wont be on here very long now. But thanks guys.

 

[detmatt]

We don't hate ANY of these cars so stick around. If anything we may pick on the sellers of these cars at least 50% of them being flippers.

 

[ConnerIRNMN]

thanks man

 

[Fratzog]

Nice score. Welcome from . The car is a beauty. What issues will you be giving attention to next?

 

[ConnerIRNMN]

I was thinking about starting on the interior rewrapping the seats at our upholstery shop soon as we finish the 67 camaro this week. Seats and carpet.

Yeah, the words "barn find" and "original owner" in a for sale ad are not an endearment here, but a red flag. Not hate, but an assessment for a fellow member. Thanks for saving this one, believe me it is very much appreciated.

Welcome. I would seriously consider looking at the roof under that vinyl before I started on any interior work.

 

[ConnerIRNMN]

The vinyl was removed in 83. Thats the roof itself. No one believes me i know. But it is.

Welcome!

Thanks man

 

[live4theking]

Welcome, that looks to be a solid car to start with. Thanks for posting up all of the pictures so quickly. We get a little crusty if someone tells us they have a car without proof of it.
