First off, in my defense, I was left unattended...
Terry, a friend in the local Chevelle club's son owns this. He took it all apart, sold the 230 6 engine, had a new 283 built, a 1 piece floor pan tacked in and then moved to Oregon and abandoned it for his dad to move around, find storage for and so on. His dad is tired of dealing with it and the son is now married with 3 children and realizes he will never do anything with it.
Terry asked me if it was worth $2,500 and I said it was but probably wouldn't bring much more, as a basket case. Terry just want's out from under it. He talked with his son about it a couple days ago and he agreed, so he said I could have it for that. Yep, couldn't help myself.
I didn't take any pics when I looked at it, because I never expected him to be willing to sell it for that. Terry has the 283 at his house with the build papers and dyno sheets. Made around 250 hp and cost more to build the engine that I am paying for the whole car, with a clear title...
As Jim Cary said in "The Mask", somebody STOP me !!
Be a couple weeks, before I can go get it all. Lots of loose parts in 2 locations, 60 miles apart, so it will take some time to get it all here. Then I have no place to store it inside... or time to work on it... situation normal for me...
