Actually, a pretty reasonable price for an original 340 4 speed car... :thinking:

Funny how "life got in the way" after one year of ownership....I think it's more like reality got in the way :haha:

If I lived in the states I would buy it and save it. Living in Canada though where everything costs double it's a no-go. Hopefully the right guy buys it and does it proud. $10k in sheetmetal in the US = $20k in Canada.

DS fender was replaced at some point.
Would need to check for collision damage up there.

That would bs a labor of love to save.

My way of looking at it is ...part out what you can and scrap it.   

They say its an A66 but with no engine or transmission its a shell you would never find the original engine to have it numbers matching so what it was when it came out of the factory...is a big so what now especially with no steering wheel, radiator, etc.   

That car would cost $15 in sheet metal, $5K for Engine, $3K for transmission, replacement dash board and instrument cluster another $4k, Misc such as radiator, new heater, console, etc another $3K, another $3k fix the bashed in rear, and then about a $7k paint job.    Throw in about 1,000 hours of labor at $120 equals about 75,000 .   Add that all up and you will have around $115,000 for a NON matching numbers car.   

no thanks at anything over $1,000.
