F/S 1969 Coupe 4 Speed 350/350
I bought this car in October, 2012 after it sat in a garage since 1986. It was parked after the previous owner lost a wheel when the aftermarket spacer went. There was some body and suspension damage that he couldn't afford to repair after rebuilding the engine, painting the car and lots of other work. I focused on fixing the mechanical issues and have not touched the visual blemishes. His loss became a dream project for me, which turned bittersweet since I need to sell it due to unexpected twins on the way. About the car:
Originally a big block car (427/390) but now has a rebuilt 350/350 with less than 500 miles. Runs strong. 4 speed manual. All other numbers match and are original (trans, rear, etc.).
New tires, brakes, calipers, hoses, battery, starter, fuel tank and exhaust system on the car.
Very solid, un-hit frame with only minor surface rust. Lights go up and down smoothly and doors close solidly. The roof panels go on and off nicely.
Interior could use new carpeting and seat covers. I have new seat foam and seat belts. Interior panels, doors, roof and dash are in excellent shape.
Body is mostly straight with an older red repaint job (originally Cortez Silver). The only body damage is to the drivers side rear quarter and I have a NOS fender to replace it (see pictures).
I have several boxes of parts, manuals and receipts. Also included is the NCRS Shipping Data Report and the dealer is still owned/operated by the original selling family. I spoke to them and they are looking to see if there are any old records.
Car is garaged all the time.
Twins on the way have me looking for a larger vehicle and freed up garage space.
This is a very good driver car or restoration candidate. I planned to make it a driver, so the parts I used are new but not all NOS.
Please email me with any questions.
Asking price is FIRM at $9,500. I am happy to show the car in Pennington or Flemington, NJ. I did my best to point out all of the blemishes in the pictures below.

I'd love to trade my 79 for that. Of course that accomplishes nothing for you with twins on teh way! A 69 350/350 4 spd is exactly what I've envisioned one day selling my car for.

Thanks, but I really do need to sell it. Your car looks great and under other circumstances I may have considered it.

The rear quarter is a sad sight. I do have a NOS fender to replace it though!

Hey -
I am a newbie to these cars, but have loved them for a long time. A buddy of mine owns a 77 Vette and I enjoy driving it immensely. I wanted to know if you had quick estimate of
1) Cost in NJ to get the bought parts installed
2) Cost of redoing the interior - nothing to fancy
3) Cost of fixing the rear bodywork
Thanks
