My neighbor stopped me a while ago and told me his old neighbor has one of those cars he wants to get rid of!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) I went by and looked at it and asked "how much"! He said $500 and I said sold! So I went and got a trailer and started to load it up and I noticed the last two digits of the serial number on the title are reversed and the car is a Salvaged title. Well I couldn't buy it with the wrong vin# so I told him if he fixed it I would purchase it. He called me today and said he got the title fixed and if I can get it out of his driveway today he will sell it to me for way less!

Well now it is in my garage with new title and all! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

'73? You're money ahead just with the Fuchs. Nice score.

What's that square thing where the radio should be?

It is a '70 but they put late bumpers on the front......??????!

The square thing is an alarm control display with motion sensor!

Jeff


No plan yet, there is a guy that expressed interest in the WTB classifieds so when I repair the front right rotor and get it running I will decide if I want to flip it or do another conversion!

a '70 with adjustable seat and late belts and console.....?

Interior says late. Doors and dash say early? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Yep!

I have not gotten into everything they did when they recovered the salvage but it looks like they added the passenger seat adjustability, late front bumpers and over all late model update. The hell hole looks very solid but the front bumper conversion is a bit of a hack! I will spend some time next week going through it to figure out what exactly happened. It looks like just the front was hit but they took alot of time converting it to late stuff while they were at repairing the front! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Yeah, what a charitable act. Probably deserves a Purple Heart for such a rescue (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

Nice Score!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) Last year my neighbor had a 1985 Buick Regal GS she wanted to get rid of. Asked if she should call a junk yard. It looked good so I told her I would buy it for $500. She accepted and I felt guilty at first and asked her to tell the family before I took it off her hands. She did and after I gave her the $ I saw it had only 45 000 miles on it. I flipped it 3 days later for 2800$ then took her out to dinner (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif)
