Here's what this web site says it's worth. There are a lot on 68' only parts for that model year, so be sure it is all there as trying to find these parts can get expensive. Looks to be a nice car and worth looking at. Lots of bid activity.

Looks like a very nice car. Owner sounds more like a dealer the way he discribed the car or a lawyer. Also pics are taken is spot where they are favorable to the car, another dealer clue. The mileage is not that important. Would guess it was more like a 132,000, since it was completely rebuilt.

Just make sure to check casting dates on engine and trans.
