It is almost a stretch to even call that a parts car. It will be interesting to see what it sells for.

It's reserve not met. What makes you think it's "cheap"? Frankly, even $1800 is too much for that pile. All you're buying is an O.A.I. hood and a VIN.

These are just the Jokes Joe! :I was just being sarcastic with the title. I just went with a friend and picked his Rallye 350 for 18k needing almost nothing. Anyone attempting to restore this car will end up on a suicide Hot line once they see what it cost to return this car to the streets.

wow, that car looks like it was in a minor accident, then was abused for a while, engine seized so it sat, then was in a flood only to be left out to dry out and the sun baked it, finally attempted to be salvaged years later, when someone tried to start the car and it caught on fire only to be soaked again with a fire hose. Again - how did the hood survive as well as it did.

Good luck to the person who buys it, I suppose at this point in our hobby anything is salvageable.

If the numbers matching engine, trans, body are there, the rear end is there, and the tub is salvageable, it and a 4000 dollar Cutlass S parts car might make it work. I'd rather just buy a Rallye 350 in good shape.
