Depends on if your planning on parting it out or fixing it. Birdcage repairs can be expensive. :yesnod:

FWIW. Good Luck!

Extra L88 hood, new bird cage comes with--if this puppy was near me, I'd be tempted--definitely more than $4500 worth of parts. Pretty rough project for restoration, though.

Re: Deal or Dud ??? (verskel)

If the frame really is good (hard to believe unless it's been replaced, judging by the birdcage and the rust on those pipes), It's a steal for a high option factory A/C car. Automatic hurts a little.

Re: Deal or Dud ??? (Wrencher)

Birdcage rotted ... but frame is clean. :skep:

All this says is that they washed the frame. :lol:

Seriously, though - most frames look OK, until you lift the body. :yesnod:

Still, it's not a bad deal for someone with big skills and small budget.
