Would post a video of how it sounds but says the file is to large .
not horrible but still not worth 10K. and the salvage title.
9k, he will deliver it to me in Las Vegas with the parts I wanted and he wasn't going any lower. I've definitely got some decisions to make about it. Part of me wants to just buy it and be happy having a clean running and driving with minimal restoration project and part of me thinks I should keep waiting. Problem is I see rust buckets needing tons and tons of work around me for 6k. This car if push came to shove I'd at least get my money back from it.
How could you guarantee that you would get your money back? He hasn't sold it...
The title shows it was totalled out by an insurance company, rebuilt/restored, shows it was brought up to specs, by whomever inspected it. Good looking car, but the salvage on the title will always be a downfall. If you are buying it to keep it, who cares? But if the market falls out, you may have a hard time selling. I don't buy to sell, so I buy what I want... Jmo...
This. I'm not so worried about the title after seeing the car, looking it over and taking it out for a drive. The body was straight (besides the one dent), the car drove straight, and felt straight.
I did just find another car listed in California, the interior isn't as clean, the body has a couple rust issues that would need fixed, but it's a true GT car (not #'s matching due to motor swap) with a 340 motor (originally was a 318?), front disk break conversion already installed, 8 3/4 rear end already installed.
It's a car I plan on keeping for a long long time. Maybe my son will want to take it off my hands one day.
I'm not a number chaser, but if you plan to keep it. It's all good. Is a good looking car, I am just trying to look out for you. And regardless, it is YOUR MONEY, not mine! Find a car, and enjoy it with the family.
1st - WELCOME! 2ND- Good looking family you have ! 3rd- Nice car ! Take it to a garage/shop so you can get it up on a hoist and take a good look underneath at the frame ect. (Reasons for the salvage title??) If you are hooked after driving it and can afford it...Go For It !!!
It’s a shame you are not closer to WV,
I have a co-worker with a nice 70 dart,
408 blueprint, TCI trans, factory 8.75 rear with just installed 4.10 gears, factory front disks.
It’s an original sheetmetal car, nothing replaced.
He did put fresh shiny paint on it a few years ago.
Could use some minor interior work, but the interior is presentable.
He wants $15,000 for the car, which is less than he has in it, it’s a real pretty car that runs strong.
That 67 gt looks solid ! The nice thing about a six is that you know the car hasn't been BEAT it's entire life. The Six's are usually pretty dependable, and later on down the road, you can always upgrade the drivetrain. Just my 2cents.
I hear you, I see a lot of vehicles out west I am interested in, but keep telling myself just to finish the ones i already have.I looked at all the classifieds on here and nothing close to me really. That I could swing at least. With being in school M-F 8-6 it's hard to find time to make any real trips to go pick up a car.

We are all keeping our fingers crossed for you Justin, sounds really nice!
Sounds like your going about this with the right attitude. The white dart is a '70 and it's my 17 year old sons. He bought it off my brother at a reasonable price. It was in very good shape, body is a 15 footer, interior is great shape but it wasn't running. We've been working on it for a year and a half and doing odds and ends. ALOT of good memories and skinned knuckles together! It's a driver and puts a smile on his face every time he's in it. My wife and daughter enjoy it as well! Keep us informed! A tremendous amount of great info and great guys on this site.
