He is looking for a 73. You posted that you have a 72.


So...is that a typo or are you offering a 72? I see that you have both.

Thanks, but I am not looking for a project. I would like to find one that only needs minor items if any . My work schedule and kids do not allow for major restorations , but maybe when the kids are grown and I retire .

this is the one that Ctls442 posted.

I looked at this car yesterday at the swap meet. The plastic interior panels are trashed, as is most of the seat upholstry. The console, shifter, dash and upper door panels seemed good.

The body, has a few areas of minor rust, nothing that was alarming. i did not even look at the engine compartment because the hood was almost closed, and the lighting was terrible in the area the car was parked in.

Waaaaaaaaaaay over priced, even with the docs...

Tim ,
Thanks , I have contacted him in the past when ad first came out. He sent me several detailed photos and I would have to agree with you. Car has potential , but way overpriced in this condition , docs are a plus for sure. Also contacted seller for other car and in very similar condition and much further away. I am waiting patiently for right car to surface. Have a spot reserved in the garage next to the other hurst olds. Keep the leads coming .

i am in the beginning stages of trying to locate one myself. I recently purchased a black one, but it the body is extremely rough, but the interior is in pretty good shape. I have 4 69's right now, and I am thinking about selling one or two to find the right car....my buddies think i am nuts!

If you do not mind the absence of air conditioning, finding a W-46 would be my ultimate '73 H/O. I guess the optional flip-up roof vent would partially help with the no air conditioning. Never noticed until recently that the Ebony black model has black painted SS-III rims, not gold painted. Interesting that the designers decided on that combination - guessing they decided the gold wheels would be too much with the black paint. Good luck with your search.
