Looks like she is wanting 30k....I'm guessing that's waaay too much. I'll just have to try to talk her down..

$30K is way too much for that car.... keep pressing and good luck!

If she was smart she`d call the artist formerly known as "Prince" LOL.

Well, had a good look. Orig motor, orig paint, POP. Owner wouldn't take less than 25k, so I'm on my way home empty-handed. It was a really cool car!.

Sorry you didnt get it but to tell you the truth from my stand point I dont think 25k for that car is out of line. Its still a real 427 car in rare colors. the only thing that kills it for me is the chick stick and bench seat. He should have never showed you the car looking like that. Thats what makes it look cheap.

Is the Caprice a two door or four?
Is the T-Bird restored or original?

If you get a chance to see the car again could you snap a picture of the vin, cowl tag, and POP? Like Don said this is a very rare car and I would like to add the numbers to my database. I don't think the seller is far off with a price of $25,000 if the car is as original as she says, but the bench and auto is definitely going to hold it back a little.

If I go back it will mean that I caved in and went back to pick it up. All I have now is a photo of the vin but if I do get the chance I'll get the others for you.

The Caprice is a Two-Door.
The TBird was semi-restored. Top has been painted, seats have been recovered, AC and radiator have been added, engine is correct replacement. I have more photos of it.

CL piece especially in the plum CLR..
Before doing the deal it may be worth noting the build plant as there's always a chance it's a Canadian built car and documents available from GM Canada Vintage Services if so..
