Saw the car. It can be saved but needs lots of work. Pics here (I would have taken more but my batteries died!!):

The underneath is rough. Car sat in a damp garage with a dirt floor for a number of years. Trunk rotted, gas tank rotted, floors will likely poke thru in spots. Front clip had real poor fit but orig owner claims no accidents . Major mold inside.. A cool car though and if you have the bucks to restore it right, it's worth picking up!

I thought this car went out west, but it looks like it's still for sale:

Mark, in your opinion, what do you think the car is worth? I feel 8k with all the work needed. It's unclear if the motor is useable. Not sure what work the trans needs either. If it comes close I may pull the trigger.

I do know 10k won't take it! The engine is still soaking,soon to have diesel added to hopefully free the rings.As far as the trans,I'll bet the linkage is just seized as I couldn't budge the shifter.I would like it,but I better finish my GTO first.

todd,
that drivetrain, etc is the perfect match for your emblems.

8k sounds like top dollar. dave.

I know they were hoping I'd buy it when it was 23K. They really want it to go to someone who isn't looking to do a quickie on it and flip it.
Maybe after I win this Fridays Super 7...

2qwik2c found the car in Ontario and he sold him an F41 bar that was missing as the previous owner had raced the car and it was added weight. This was greatly appreciated and anyone dealing with this individual is advised that he is on the up and up with absolutley no problems. The vehicle in question, 1 of 5, is now owned by the original owner and will be restored in time, if I last that long. Thanks, Doug.
