|
|
Just saw on Ebay a '52 split. Does anybody think it is worthy looking. Located in Michigan, looks pretty decent. Is there a trustworthy shipping co somebody has used out there to get it to Oregon? Reserve is at $1026 so far!!  |

Cory,
No doubt...what a Newbie move!
ps...Keep in mind, restoring a split is crazy expensive, even if you get the car for cheap.
Good luck bro-

id get it but not restore it back to factory, id probably not worry about some of the parts if they looked correct and fit, but id put in a hipo motor and sell the old..but yes, still quite a bit of money/parts needed for that thing _________________ (O\U|U/O) Top Vw (o\UU/o) |

maybe thats just a scare tactic, to make the guy think that the price will be that high, so he backs out early. i agree w/ you riz, 10 g's for that is way to much. aswell, it's like 2splitwindows said, it's missing a whole lot of expensive, hard to find parts.
it would make a cool drag racer tho. thats what i'd do to it. |
