Benton Illinios. Ran across these and had to share. Is the 88 very popular?
Any input on the 1963 dynamic 88? I was tempted to buy it.
The guy wanted 3900.00 for this one
This one was complete 63 88 with some documentation for 1500.00 OBO. I wish I had room for it but don't. It's a v-8 bench seat car. Posted because I hate to see it sit there looking so restorable.
Wow! I have the exact same 63! I got mine here in MD for $500. Literally, the only non-factory parts on it were the radiator hoses and some of the steering gear that had been replaced. I got it roadworthy, and drove it for 3 years in about the same condition as that one. I wanted to flip it for a profit, and while everyone thought it was cool, no one wanted it for any price. Mine is now rotting behind my garage as an engine/rear donor for a Gasser project when I hit the lottery.
Keep in mind that parts are almost impossible to find for restoration, and often they're overpriced (i.e.- desert sheet metal). I didn't restore mine because I would have been $40k deep in a car that might bring 10 on the market. On the plus side, high compression 394s and early Olds rears are AWESOME!
i think i used to own the cutlass...when i had it, it was a complete car...looks like someone pulled all the vert special stuff off..a shame...i sold it in about 03 when i lived in STL,,,needed motor work, and i sold it for more than 3900...looks just about the same as when i had it..i bought it out of a machine shed where it was sitting since the 80s..it had wire hub caps when i sold it..
