The special trailer tires and wheels on the rear ad all the value, in case you're wondering about the 17k price. Simply buy the car for 17k, have it restored for 150k, and flip it for 42k. Easy-peasy.

Looks like the Cleveland Ad was flagged. Is this the same car that is now on the Toledo CL?


And it is a Tri-power car to boot!

I like the color combo. I agree the price looks good. But that is with if it is real caveat. That is always a question but especially with a rare car. Is it a real fuel car? Is it a real trim and vin tag car? Is that motor the original? Then the usual condition questions,paint,body,frame,etc. Hood fit is not good. Does that mean front end repair? Most likely but not always. The engine compartment looks new. But you have to wonder when the description states "SS 327 Fuel Injection' Definitely worth checking out. Not sure about you but I am not seeing all of these falling C2 prices that I have been reading about here on the Forum. Even still in the winter cold I am seeing higher asking prices this year then last year. And the cars are selling.

I agree 100%, All cars must be checked out. If its real, its a good deal. Every winter I hear the gloom and doom of the C2 market and spring comes and prices are 5-10% more. If a nice car comes up, it is grabbed quick.

The fuelie car up in Portland does look nice. Two possible issues: hood fit at the front header is off, and the photos are dated 14 years ago.

Am I wrong in thinking 62K is high for a color change and transmission change even though based on only the pictures this looks like it could be a nice driver?

I think 62 is a little high, for a driver, he did change it for the better I would think.

Yeah I think the color and the transmission change certainly add to the desirability. I wonder if and who takes the hit in the end.

Has the internet broken? There hasn't been a post in this thread for nearly 24 hours. Weird.
