Great score, hot rod that sucker out!
Hey I saw an almost identical one a couple years ago.
stoped and knocked on the door and talked to the ancient old man that owned it.
He said it is for sale but no sign was on it, he was asking $3500 because that's what he paid for it new, he said.
I told him they are not worth that much and his needed much more work than the one you found above.
I did not want to argue with the guy so I snapped a few pics, got his # and told him I'd try to find a buyer for him.
I think the car is still sitting there at that price, but I woud have offered $1-k tops for it's non running condition.
