Looking for a new project

Looking for 60's to 72 cutlass, f-85, or anything 2 door. Must be manual, roller is fine, not necessary to have engine or trans. I'm in socal so prefer local in order to be able to see it. Need straight frame and minimal cancer. Rust in the usual places is expected but don't want to replace full quarters, roof etc. Just sold a 68 442 that was too rusty so not looking to do that again.

Thanks!

What is your budget? Around here what you are looking for would be $8K.

It all depends on the car itself. 8K isn't unreasonable if the car is in decent shape. I have seen a few cars that the owner started on and left them in pieces, literally boxes full of parts. I'm not interested in that type of project.

Here's an example from oldsmobilecentral don't know if it's real or scam but it's in Washington. https://www.oldsmobilecentral.com/fo...S-Lakewood.php

Not bad for the money from the pics. But I would take this car with no drivetrain for 2 or 3 k less. So it really varies by model. I wouldn't pay as much for an S compared to a 442.

Sorry to hear that, how bad is it? And where is it? And what is it lol?

On another note my apologies for not replying to the message about the 67 post. I didn't see that until now.
