    passed this one up....

    Passed on this one guys I took my boys 9yo and 13yo and yup they found bondo in all the usual places. the cowling was shot on both sides and the drivers side torque box had a lot of rust in and around the area..all the floor pans were replaced with tin that was riveted in place..The car was pieced together to look like a grabber for the race track.. interior was not bad but the track spacers that are necessary for proper mounting were missing.... ran good sounded like it needed a tune up and all the rubber was done from shock mounts to motor mounts..he wanted 1000.00 for the car I told him if he does not sell it I might be interrested in the parts..ie running 302 and c-6 trans..I did look to see if the disc brake conversion was done and it was not done yet...Glad I took the time to visit this site and get a little education before I went and looked at this car...The search continues and the funds will grow as we wait for the right car project for my boys and I....
