If this is the car from the SFBay Area near hwy 280 the rims are cast Fuchs copies, not genuine.

The easiest way to tell is remove a wheel and look for the et and # stamped inside the wheel. Also there is a logo stamped with the fox head if I remember correctly.

Is that an '85 or '86? If the sport seats are dark blue and in nice shape, I'd like first dibs on buying them if you decide to sell.

For that price, this is at the very least a great investment.

how is a totaled '77 for $3700 and the need to spend twice the budgetted alotment for frame straightening a "great investment"?

I 've got NO problem with Hal doing this; I own a MIddie too and I am glad to see anyone save one from the crusher....but a "great deal"? Am I missing something here?

Sounds like are great save of a middie. Make it a driver and spend as little as necessary. Who cares about "investment potential", who's project has made them rich?
keep us posted

well, for $4,500 he now has what? - a roller maybe?

that's not a bad deal if that's what the end result was.

Looks like a complete car Randy - not a roller - Hal?

If that's correct as I understand, I think it is a super deal, esp. if it does not need a $10k paint job.

Hal, Completely agree on saving Middies. There are so many of them that have been modified that an original numbers-matching 2.7 without flares may actually someday be worth a little something just based on rarity....guess we'll see.

Good for you, keep us posted!

Great stuff! It's inspiring to see somebody not afraid to jump in and get the job done.

Looking good too!

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.
