Hey all looked at a 1970 34487 hardtop 442 Sebring yellow - - car yesterday.
It had a 396021F block in it 68-72 with G heads "71" with turbo 400
his n hers shifter needs paint, interior all body panels looked orig except pass front was replaced looks like no frame damage.
looks to be the Orig 6 bolt down rear spoiler on back.
Crank windows Ac car 87k on the body comes with complete new dash.
4 SS II wheels bead blasted with sebring paint goes with and trim for wheels.
He said it was running but when i got there it was not. he has the car many years and knows complete history.
We tried but it was starving for fuel we only got it to turn over for a few secs maybe 10 at most.
was asking $17,500 the body was pretty nice ans the W-39 was super nice i dont think i saw one crack. pics coming
since it didnt run he came down to 15k but in my head i was at 10k at most.
i might pass would like to find something more put together but been looking for a sebring yellow car as i missed one as a kid. was forsale few days later car was gone.
it does have a 70 Orig carb 7040251

 

I think you're right on the 10k max. It's not running, it's not a numbers car. How about the hood? Is that a real w-25? Does it have the air cleaner assembly?

 

Original carb on a 1970 442 AT car without W30 would have been a '257

 

Any pics under the hood or interior?

 

7040257 Is correct carb for automatic 442. Should have OG trans

 

Orig Air cleaner missing it does have a better complete Dash not perfect tho

 

Thx Joe! I get them mixed up

 

Has Correct - - on trim tag

 

IMO...Run Johnny....run.
17,500 OH HELL NO.
Tell him to get sober...watchin too many alcohol auctions.

Drop the 1 on the prefix. $7500 up to 9500 is realistic. That's for a solid car.

I see shitty door seams and a bunch of tree debris caught in the cowl and front fenders. That means the fender dog legs are rotting. You will likely uncover hidden rust while stripping it.
Pull the SS trim from under the wipers. Bet the cowl is rusted. Cowl/dash metal surgery = $17,500 by itself...lol.

13-15 would apply, IF it was desert boneass dry, 100% rot free and had all the OEM parts including a restorable interior.

 

thx

 

Hi John
I always take clues from how they keep the car stored - was it kept in a garage, barn or some indoor covered storage? In this case I would say not.
A car should be able to start, drive and pass a state inspection, otherwise its a parts car, and gets a parts car offer price.
BTW this does not look like Arizona

 

its Mesa AZ yeah it’s been outside
