Just think, its only half as far as if you found one this nice in New York or Florida. If you are not in a big rush to get it back once its paid for, transports are reasonable.
This would be something I'd want very detailed pictures over and want to know all the stupid details like how nice the chrome is, what all needs fixed interior wise, etc. I'd be dropping my 360 into it so the 273 is not an issue to me.
I have a '67 2-door post. My dad picked up the car when I was still in high school and I was just now getting around to seriously restore it. Problem was, i thought it was a 2-door hard top this entire time. I did not want a post, I don't even care for the look of them. I still quite don't know how I overlooked this detail.
So, now I'm in the market to find a hardtop and a GT would be even more badass than a standard model.
