Not sure if it's a TA block, at this point I would say NO to be on the safe side.

Yes
If it's a real AAR and all there it's definitely worth that. I'll take it if you don't want it!
I would say yes, depending on how much rust there is and the amount of steel work required, it would still be worth it without the block.
Especially considering you can do 75% of the work yourself.

You should know this Alan with all the cars you restore. I think it is worth the 25k, but having to buy the car and then put 50-60k into it, puts it at the top end for resale and that is where you would be right. But now for someone who wants a good AAR, that would be a good deal, as they would know what was done to the car. Better than buying a 60-80k car with little or no background on it. :cheers:
Thanks for your thoughts....Obviously the more complete it is, and the cheaper I can buy it for are two important factors....
I was just wondering if it was worth checking out....most likely a basic AAR, but imagine if it was a rubber bumper car or rear window louvers....or red with white interior :drooling: .............anything to help offset the automatic transmission factor....I have way more questions then answers at this point...
I wouldn't be buying it for myself to restore...I would want to sell it to somebody that wants me to restore it.
It's has much better prospects than the V code 70 Cuda I was asking about two weeks ago...

That is how 75% of black cars end up being black cars
$38K Alberta$. There was a B5 one F.S. a few days ago and it's gone.
A guy I know in NJ had a red one with a non matching TA engine included for sale recently. He was trying to get $25k for it. It sold but not that quickly. I would say $25k US is ok but only if the TA parts are there.
Good to know Chris, thank you... :cheers:
A little update...at first I'd just heard about the car from an old friend, he was able to track the owner down and get me a phone number.
Today I got a hold of the owner and he won't show me the car.... :pullinghair: YET !
Apparently it's listed as an "asset" in his separation agreement from his ex.....He'll have to sort it out with her and the courts in order to have it removed from the list in order to sell it.
He wants to get that straighten out before even considering selling it....
I got the "Don't call me.....I'll call you" statement from him......but I remain hopeful. :dunno:
I'm in no rush....but if he calls me...I might have the upper hand in the deal ? :takemymoney:

Not really, nothing more than I already shared...he was driving while talking..... :stop: so I didn't take up too much of his time.
