Willing to pay up to $15k maybe more for the right car. As rust free as possible, driver condition or slightly nicer. I want a clutch. W cars and Hurst (I know auto) considered as well. I really would prefer within 400 miles of 15732, but try me you never know.

I responded. How do I close a thread as I think I've found a car?

Jon what happened w the W car ? I see its back up on CL

jon69olds

Retro, it fell through on my end, I needed financing for part of the price and my bank made it impossible. I see that it is back on CL as well, unfortunately he still doesn't have any updated pictures with the front end all together.

RetroRanger

ok that W has been for sale for so long i just wondered what happened.

i see youve got a new car hopefully youve got a keeper

jon69olds

I had planned on keeping the '69, but just got burnt out on it. I should have the new ride in about 2 weeks, look for an updated signature, avatar, and new thread. Here's another hint it's a 455 and a 4 speed.

RetroRanger

im jealous already BBO n 4 speed nice!

someday i hope to convert mine to 4 or 5 speed, right now i have the BBO half and i am happy w that

jon69olds

Well I'm back in the market for the same car. Will also consider G body H/O, 442. Really want a Big block and a 4 speed, but will consider a small block and 4 speed as well. Still at $15k driver condition preferred. Within 400 miles of 15732, but will consider all cars.

jon69olds

Would also consider 68-72 A body rollers, I may just build one.

tru-blue 442

If you decide to build one let me know. I may be able to help with some of it. Iv'e been holding on to this transmission for a while.
I rebuilt the engine it came from. It was a 69 F block. The car itself was a 72 442 that had an interior fire.

jon69olds

Ok, consider me confused are you selling the engine as well or just the transmission? I have a line on a '69 400 came out of a '69 442, will need rebuilt most likely. Now just need the car. Also how much for that transmission? Do you have the bellhousing, pedals...?

tru-blue 442

Hey Jon. I would sell the transmission, bell housing and flywheel along with the shifter linkages as you see it with a new Hurst T-handle.
I think the bell housing may have some damage, I would have to check. I'm keeping the engine.

tru-blue 442

The bell housing has a small hole other than that, good shape. All the bolts are there too.

jon69olds

Price? Wonder if Fastenal would ship it?

tru-blue 442

I will have to get back with you on a price. Yes, I was thinking Fastenal also. Heck I think the solid driveshaft is here too.

jon69olds

Ok let me know.
