Same old story. Boy falls for project with "potential"....finally has to admit he will never have time to complete it.

Orphan project looking for good home. Truly great platform for dream project. NO surprises!

1973 SBC V8 Conversion. Everything done to date was with the intention of keeping the vehicle forever. i.e. front wheel wells have individual vent holes drilled and champhered rather than the standard chop job.

I have +/- $10K invested to date.

List needed to complete.
1) replace engine gaskets
2) replace caliper o-ring (only other side was leaking initially and I foolishly only replaced that o-ring)
3) tires and alignment
4) paint
5) rubber

Current tags and registration. Car is VERY fast and runs and shifts well but will need to be towed due to old tires, engine oil leak (Local mechanic recommends removing engine and replacing all gaskets) and front caliper leak (have new s-caliper o-ring).

Located in Calistoga California 94515

First person to show up with $6000 and a trailer can take her home.
