I don't have a problem with the condition or the price, the major factor holding it back is the lack of documentation. No fender tags, No broadcast is the major killers.

Things like the claim it's an "8 track" car....is he only saying this because of the bezel piece left in the dash, which is the same for all radio options ?

Than by all means, by it. If the car was delivered as a gift, and most of the work was performed by the recipient, then the cost might not exceed the value.  :alan2cents:

Without the documentation I mentioned, even if the car was free, with $10K in the trunk, the cost of the restoration would far exceed the resale value of the car :alan2cents: and that's likely why it will never get the proper restoration it deserves :bye:

Alan, I completely agree with both you and JS29.  Plus, there's also the small issue that 8-Tracks weren't even available in 1971.

If I could buy that car for $5k or less, I'd just fix it up mechanically to make it reliable, patch the holes, put the body and interior all back together and drive it with that patina. What a fun conversation piece.
