I am indicicioning about doing the rest of the bondo today, Have some FUN stuff to do rebuilding calipers and wheel cylinder's on Rons today then get the rear brakes on and the tires, that will look like progress, just takes forever to clean, blast and paint parts.
To me that is a stripper at 700
Parts car at best. Hole in floor under drivers seat? Did I read that? What torsion bar mount?
guy locally just posted a 74 duster for sale, 700 bucks

exactly - it's a parts car so not something I need
no... you part it out, then use that money for a nicer car
ScampMike

well - he states broken torsion bar... I have a hard time believing that
Jack it up by the rad support so you can see whats going on!

I'm already going to have to do the forgiveness thing if/when I get another project car - buying a junk to part out would go over like a lead balloon... and I don't have the want/need/time or desire to deal with parting out a carno... you part it out, then use that money for a nicer car

LOL - bite meJack it up by the rad support so you can see whats going on!
For you no for me I see a lot of good parts, hell the front disk set up would pay for it.

a /6 70.. that would likely be a drum/drum car wouldn't it?
Look at the master it is a disk.
this is why you buy car and hide it at buddy's house until you can find a way to trick her into saying it's okay

ah - I see - - that's probably why he thinks it's worth a grand
Or move to the country.
ive seen torsion bars broken before, usually from someone try to jump the car, walk away

and like I said - he has a good stash of parts for sale too, so he knows more about these things than he is letting on
Disk set up rebuilt 4-500, wiring harness section 100 all day long, bumpers 2-300 each then the lights, split front bench seat inst cluster etc....... Tons of parts on there a lot you do not even think about just takes a while to move them, still selling stuff from the belve.

I thought I 1/2 *** did that when I bought this place - turns out to be way more residential/neighborhood than I imagined

I hear ya - it's more about the time thing... I've got the Scamp to put back together, the Harley needs attention SOON and I want to do a semi-resto on my plow truck... I'm getting tired just thinking about it!!
Love it here no issues at all, heck the township maintenance guys stopped by one day and asked if I could trim the bamboo back it leans pretty bad when it snows and makes it hard for the school bus to turn in the winter, hell they could have just issued a fine to me.
Hear ya man.
