I am new to A bodies only and still trying to get the hang of it, but I have recently acquired a 65 Signet convertible, being a factory 273 Commando car. I am just putting this ol girl out there to see if anyone would have any interest in her or any knowledge of how rare it is. I have been unsuccessful on getting a number of how many were 273 commando cars, only number i can find is there was just over 2500 of the convertibles built in 65. I will give you a quick low down on the car.
Floors are junk, lower 1/4s are gone.
Trunk- center well and floors are good, all frames as far as I could see are good. Random rust in odds and end places through out the car, was stored in a corn crib for several years and I cant decide if that hurt it or helped it..
I took the seats and carpet out to get the cabin cleaned up. The engine i have tore into a little bit, carb is off, valve covers are off. It is stuck but I am tinkering with it trying to get it to free up.
She is rough, but its all there for a start. I have no clue on a value, especially on a car I would be safe to bet very few came with the Commando. any help would be appreciated, Thank you.
I do not have any pictures on my laptop, but if you would like to see pictures, shoot me an email and I will email them back off my phone, thanks again
