Might be worth a couple grand if you already had some of the correct parts for it and an earlier pan taking up space in your garage.

give the guy a break, Ok so its far from perfect. Remember he does not try to sell it as an old split he clearly states its a 70's car with a zwitter body.

i anything people should be happy cars like this are for sale...id much rather see someone buy this slam it and put a massive engine in it, then buy a complete 49-53 split and mess it up!!!

Maybe a long time ago it was headed to the junk yard, but someone saved it. At least it's still rolling after all these years.
