Ongoing 1971 Olds Ninety Eight 2 door hardtop project.
455 Olds big block.
Runs and drives good on gas can (drove it 100 miles on the gas can) and can run for a very short amount of time through the fuel tank since fuel tank needs cleaning.
All electronics other than A/C work, fuel gauge works, and has all the original hubcaps. Little to no rust on this straight Olds.

This is an ongoing project as we are currently addressing the few small spots of rusts and preparing to give it a new paint job. The vehicle is not in one solid color as we have started the job and primer is now on.
Over time I will do more restoration work and when I do enough work, I will take this listing down and keep it to enjoy. I will post updates over time as more work gets completed.

I am mainly considering trades of 79' and earlier running and driving classics though will also consider Ram Chargers, Broncos, Blazer, Suburban (pre 92' of course). Willing to look at different possibilities.
Asking $5k cash. Feel free to make offers. Located in Anderson, SC.

UPDATE:
Fuel tank is at the radiator shop getting relined and cleaned. Carb has been adjusted so it runs great now and should get 1-3 better MPG.
Also, the horn is now working. The AC is the only remaining non-working option.
Still in primer but should be ready for paint within the next month.
 
UPDATE 2:
We reinstalled the cleaned, redone fuel tank and put on a new fuel pump, sending unit, and fuel lines Saturday so it is now running and driving normally through the fuel tank.
Also, with some carburetor adjustments, it just needs one pump before it will immediately start up (drives great).

More bodywork has been completed as well. Now, only one small rust spot left before it is clear for painting.
 
SGT Fury,
I have essentially all the parts and most of my parts are in good condition. Will get with you if that ever changes.

For everyone, my newest UPDATE:
Repaint is completed. Now looks good in solid off-white color.
