so bit of an update- just about ready for spring and i got the car "finished"
Amazing that you can have a car that runs and drives, but need so much to make it right. I completely detailed under the hood, rebuild the wiper door, reinstalled the rear window shelf. and last but not least, I restored the rims, and bought a set of repop redline radials- I have the build sheet and this is how it was originally optioned. they really look great against the silver.

I see what everyone else sees.....a great car if its rust free. Nice leather, power windows, looks like an original radio. Other than the wiper door actuator and its an auto it would be a great investment and a fun driving car. If I could afford it I would grab it. I would hotrod the car I have, which I am and keep this one completely stock. I could be in both worlds of collecting. BUY IT and then yo can drive one while working on the other. If your married tell the wife you bought it for her, hope she likes silver.
Time for a visit and inspection I would say. Nice looking from the ad, but only way to tell is that personal visit.
Good luck with your decision.

Not all '68 C3's had the A.I.R. system. But, all CA C3's had that system. Nice 'looking' car, decent price, THM-400 is a nice trans if you don't want to clutch. You need to know what the 'frame rust' condition is and what shape the mechanicals are in. Rusty and/or poor condition mechanicals....take a hike.
Vintage Eagle GT tires mean that it has not been driven much.......they quit making those in 92' I believe.....which jibes with his restoration in 91'...........
Smog pump means most stuff is intact...........
Hell of a deal if the metal is all solid.....
I see it's still posted,,guess you must have passed on it,, i just realized it's not far from me,, might have to have a look myself,,, thanks for the heads up
Go for it, i like the fact he has had it that long...it may have been many yrs since its been gone through but bet its somewhat sound thats half the battle
327/400 is a pretty reliable combo
