Just bought this what do you think ?
non original interior, something looked like "quickies". such as the exhaust hanger from plumbing strap. Spraying over the blower motor means the paintwork was also not-so-carefully done. 273/4spd is nice. 8.75 rear, I don't think is original. even the barracuda's has 7.25s. over 13K, must be a record for an early A. I'd say that's a 8K car tops.
If you bought it, enjoy it and don't worry what others think. opinions are like asses...eveyrone has one and they all stink.
Yea, I know the interior is not original, but that is hard to find in a 47 year old convertible. At least I can still get the "original" interior.
I don't think the delete plate is damaged, but it is hard to tell. and the tachy tach has to go.
8 3/4 is new, brakes are upgraded
Exhaust has to go
Supposedly no rust, or bondo.
I can paint the blower, and I will need to find a different steering wheel
I don't know about 8k there were a few people that bid it up to 12k, so I think I can get that at least.
I hate the dash pad.
But I am more interested in what isn't obvious Like what does the fender tag say:
And is all the chrome correct for that year.
Supposedly it is a commando motor but the valve covers and air cleaner look wrong? it is a solid lift engine with a 3/4 grind.
And what am I going to do with the 63 convertible already in my garage ?
