I bought this car a year and a half ago for 7,000$ and it was barely running. Partially rebuilt the engine,upgraded the carb,put in new front and back seats,installed to brand new speakers,installed power locks/alarm system,put in a a/c (although it's leaking coolant and will need to be fixed,brand new though),added headers/exhaust and many other things. I bought for 7,000 and put in about 8,000 so I'm at 15,000$ not trying to get that out of her,just the money I bought her for originally when she was on life support. She can easily be your daily driver with a little tinkering. I've driven her on 9 hour road trips numerous times with no problems. The odometer is just under 50,000 which I believe is correct but it wasn't working when I got it so there is no way to tell.Please let me know if you have any questions! Thx for looking!
