there is not too many bugs for under a grand that don't need huge work. if you could stretch to 2000 you might get lucky i'd say

dont think you'll find much if any for a grand that wont require a lot of work,
even at 2-3k you will need to do a few jobs to get the car how you want it..

i was looking at that bug in ross last week , didn`t see a price on it , if you`d like someone to have a look over it with you just give us a shout . have you thought about having a rust free shell shipped in from california ? i know a guy who did this recently and it cost him less than the price of a pair of new floorpans and heater channels ;)

thanks barry but i dont really know how to go about shipping.... ya i gave the man who owned it a ring a while ago he said all the underneath was all done, like new floors an all... he said he would let it go for 800... would ya think that would be a fair price?

talk to britt (roadcow) ;)

if you want i`ll pick you up and we`ll spin out to ross for a look see . 800 isn`t a bad price but it`d want careful inspection before you hand over any cash
