Oh man, that looks like a LOT of work!

 

[tony barnhill]

That's a darn good price if its all complete!

 

[LarryK]

You see them at various Import exotic car dealers for $20K-$25K. $2500 and know how to do it sounds good if body not junk and it is a complete basket case, all parts included.

 

[tony barnhill]

I've owned one & can attest ot their driving fun - & price range...you're not far off Larry! The body is fiberglass & anything on it can be repaired.....its a deal for somebody!

 

[DART]

Too little info to make a judgment. Who knows what the body, frame, doglegs, rear, tranny etc etc etc are like. As someone with one undergoing restoration for 2+ years I can attest to the hidden problems (read$$$$$$$$) that pop up. Enough things fail on my driver to keep me wondering why I'm so smitten with them. I'd buy it for the parts if it wasn't in Ersayville.

BTW Tony, I need 2 of the rubber gaskets that hold the "beehive" lens for the turn signals. I think the bugeye used them too. Got any???

 

[healeynut]

ok don't hate me but that a face only a mother could love.... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/sick.gif ok ok I know it's fast and has big fins!

Are they the same as those on a TD? I can't remember....I've got an extra set of new ones that fit a TD....what's the diameter?

...& I still say its a good price - if for nothing other than parts....that engine's gotta be worth a buck...the grille, hood, doors...heck, at one time I would've given an arm for taillights!

Still a little bitter are we?

 

[DART]

Yup

spent too many hours in the Golden Arm not to be.

BTW, in case anyone asks, the phone number was 377-40(Boyd)19(JU)

 

[DART]

Where's Ersayville?

It's the name a Baltimore Colt fan uses for Indianapolis. You wouldn't understand; it's a Maryland thing.

 

[DART]

Thank you John. Actually, it's almost a Maryland Sr. citizen thing, now.
