Neat car with the original block, but missing the Fuel unit.

Those tires are giving me fits, but easy fix to swap them out....

----So many parts missing and add to that a not so desireable color combo. And yet,,,I still like the car. Love the no radio and the rear carpet actually looks original. Kinda wish I hadn't sold my complete 65 fuel unit 4 years ago! Oh well. At this price point I'm out....Bill S

Cool car, once you get it all straightened out, you'd be pushing $100,000 in the car.
The no radio is desirable, too.

Missing lots of parts and the hood fit is concerning, but the block and tags are real. Looks like a clean birdcage, too. Worth the money to a guy who has a right FI unit sitting around.

Putting the FI back and restoring it is probably $30K now. Ask me how I know! Air cleaners are $8-10K alone if you can find one. And to have a guy like Ken Hansen go through a mystery unit you buy online is going to cost $5-6K plus any major parts that are missing or messed up.
