The car is a 1972 El Camino Custom. It was originally a 350/4brrl with a th350 trans. It has 140k miles on the body I believe, might be a little less, like 132k. Motor has 5k miles and transmission has about 6k. Has factory power steering, power brakes, and a/c, although the A/C isnt installed I have it all.

The interior is in great shape but the carpet is worn and the headliner has a rip in it

We replaced the motor in summer of '05 instead of rebuilding the stocker. We also decided to rebuild the trans at the same time while we had the car torn apart. The 12bolt has fresh fluid in it and motor has had the oil changed 3 times already. Motor was broke in properly as well. Car dyno'ed at 266/305 to the wheels but shortly after we discovered the original distributor was failing and then it was replaced with the MSD set up. Id imagine maybe 275/315 to the wheels through a 12bolt and auto, thats about 15% drivetrain loss. I know theres more to the car than what Ive listed but I cant think of anything else without looking through my receipts. I have receipts for damn near everything, it not everything and they total up to around $15k including the original price of the car ($6000). Motor was $2400, plus $700 for trans, ignition was around $600, ect... Oh also the car has an Avital car alarm and keyless entry with sensors on the hood and doors. It also had remote start but we didnt hook it back up when we put in the new motor. I still have the actuator though. The car doesnt really need anything besides paint and carpet/headliner. If we can work something out I might be willing to include the turbo kit I have for the car. Its a homemade single turbo kit with a master power t-70 turbo. All it needs is a wastegate, and some minor modifications (3'' to 4'' down pipe adapter and the exhaust flange on the y-pipe changed from v-band to t4), but I have everything other than that; turbo, headers, y-pipe, downpipe, carb plate, carb hat, boost gauge, BOV.
