I personally like '68s. They aren't like having the plague, but not everyone feels as I do. I like the look of "no mud flaps". Rick, just curious, is that '68 for sale and if so, how much?

I offered $30k as it sits not knowing if there is any engine damage from sitting. Car would need to be completely gone over again and some of the bodywork was not the best. They are considering my offer.

Something I have noticed. Depending on your OS will determine the orientation of the photos. Ones I corrected for someone yesterday were sideways on my phone but on pc they were correct as how I posted them. Not only do you rarely see 68's but even less verts.

I saw this sitting at the local transmission shop today. Cragars were pitted and look like it had a lot of Bondo in it

I think it was a phone number. I saw the holes and putty and didn't look real close. I go by there some and will look. Probably way more than its worth around here. I am still kicking myself for this story, The Local body man had bought a 56 Chevy with no engine or transmission from a self storage place. They assumed the guy died so they sold his stuff. The car had no title. It had Florida tags in the trunk, a pretty poor rough paint job but that car was virtually rust-free. The no tags and who knew what happened to the owner really bother me.

No worries, thanks Bill. I've always wanted a '57 to take to the track, but the prices are so high (especially down here) that I'd have to start with a 'roughie' and then invest the $ as time - and the Camaro- permits......
Those storage auctions are sadly all too common - miss a couple of payments and you're lucky if they even try contacting you before they sell it off.
