Marlin, just comparing the pictures of the T/A and of your car....well, there is no comparison. And, as stated above, a Yenko anything is worth much more than a '69 T/A. IMO
I just think $16k+ is too much for that car. I'm sure the new owner knows that they will be under water with the restoration and that's okay in my book....they are saving a great car but even if he/she got it for free, they'd be under water.
Don't get me wrong, I'm all for saving any muscle car. Here's an elCamino I saved/purchased at a junkyard and reunited the original block with it. As far as I know, it's being restored in northern Illinois.
1969 Monaco Orange elCamino
Anyway, back to the T/A, it's going to be a lot of work, if they don't just pull the tags and put it on another '69. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]
