#s matching or not, things like this make me wish flogging was still on the books! This looks like the PO of my elco put down his wire cutters cause he got metal snips for xmas. Excuse me, I'm gonna go cry.

:shocked2:

Ahahaha the opening bid made me laugh. but the buy it now price made me choke on the soda i was drinking

With no title, no build sheet and most of the parts damaged or missing there is no way you could even start to come out on that car if he gave it to you.

If he gave it to me I'd have him arrested for littering!!!!
Donny

i wouldnt take it if the owner paid me to. the thing is, sometimes cars are just too far gone to fix or restore. it might make a good parts car though. there might be a few useable parts somewhere on it.

What? The lug nuts????:poke:
Donny

maybe on the side that wasnt hit.
did you see that sweet steerring wheel cover? thats 5 extra horsepower right there.

i honestly wouldnt mind the 427. it most likely had a th400 too. and the floor shifter was cool for a factory one.

"Significant Accident"? Looks like a little understated. I would say this is a "Texas Sized" project.
Go ahead Donny, we will cheer you on from the sidelines......

That car is a POS and the seller is a moron. No telling if the motor/trans is even worth salvaging. Good luck with that buddy.

the seller said it ran, but ive also seen a motor run that threw a rod through the side of the block....

Hey Donny buy it and rebuild that 427 and put in your Yellow 68, be a nice Hp increase far you. Hee Hee

It has a 68 Impala 396 in it now? I was told that alot of the police cars were Impalas and they had special motors?:dontknow:. All I know is when I run the numbers thats what it comes back as.
Donny

There are a couple things that I think I remember about those cars. First, there were 2 versions of the 427. If you bought air conditioning, you could only get the little 427, not the Special High Performance version. That would explain the lack of the domed hood and trim.

Next, convertibles had a special frame with more braces and pieces to stiffen them than the coupes, so replacing the frame is going to be tough. If the car is ever put together, without a build sheet or ProtectoPlate, it is only a 427 tribute car, unless the info happens to be in the GM records.

A few years ago I found this '68 stored in the same place that I store on of my cars. It was an all original 327 car with less than 31,000 miles. It needed quarters and paint. My friend bought it for $2,500. Now it has new paint, and new top, and a new interior, and they have less than $10,000 into it. There is no way I'd pay that much for that wreck:screwy:

Take it to a junk yard and get it weighed for the metal; the remainng Impala's become more rare and their value will go up by the death of this one.

thats nuts what is this guy thinking i mean lets get real i mean real POS !!!
