not bad at all if that is what you are looking for

well the car has a LOT of rust, it will need a LOT of work to make it show like, it is VERY dirty it needs a lot of tlc.
the car does not run, I was able to get it started but the carb will need work, the motor sounds ok from what i can tell, the owner says the tranny is in working order, the car seems to have been siting on the same spot for a while and there are no leaks on the floor so thats a plus... the interior is in pretty good shape, the front seat will need to get redone and the carpet but other that that its pretty nice. the only issue i see is all the rust, i wonder how expensive it can get to get all the rust fixed on the car.. oh and the best thing i was able to talk the guy down to $400!!! |
for 400, i think it might be worth it
|
Tell him $250 and a 6 pack o beer, the old girl looks pretty ripe.
|
trust me the pics make it look so much better than she REALLY is =[
|
well how can i get the damn carb to stop getting stuck and reved up everytime you touch the gas pedal? it says it has a new carb and it does look new so im kinda lost there any help?
|
ima go pick it up today any ideas on how to get that carb to work?
|
Well the car was sold...
Its sad how long it took me to load it onto my trailer and the best thing is that I got it running and it drives amazing it burns tires like nothing i have never had a car that can brake loose so easily, the carburator its brand new but it need to be adjusted, its WAY over reved but its drivable all the car needed to start was some gas and a little help with starter fluid, the radiator has a small leak but will work on that soon, I have never been happier with a car, I’m so exited I cant wait to start working on it, Thanks guys please enjoy this moment with me. |
i know that feeling man, nothin better than trailerin you new old ride home.
|
keep us posted
|
