Clean '65 Tempest Post Sedan

[scuncio]

While I've seen this dealer peddle a lot of junk on eBay, this '65 looks like a pretty good car, although it's priced high at $18k.

Might even be original paint. In any case, I think it's a perfect platform to build something with big horsepower and leave the cosmetics alone.

That's kind of intriguing. That car would require a careful inspection. If it passes that, then dry ice all of the fluffing off of the bottom.

Replace all the suspension bushings, followed by a call to Butler Performance.

With some elbow grease, a person could have one hell of a car for around 50k. And.........never endure paint jail.

I agree! It's similar to the condition my old '65 Lemans (now owned by Tim C.) was in when I bought it. I had a similar restomod vision....
