I had posted a thread in the 80-92 forum a few days back about an '88 I was looking at, decided they wanted too much for it considering the work it needed, soooo...
I've come across a 1978 that looks promising, but I thought I'd post here and get everyone's thoughts.
The body is straight with only a touch of rust at the bottom of the left rear quarter fender well area. Needs paint, too. Had A/C at one time but it's since been disabled and there's no compressor on the engine.
It has a freshly rebuilt 400M with an Edelbrock intake and Holley 650 carb. Runs good, don't know if it's had head work or anything done or if it was just a rebuild with stock components (Seller didn't have the rebuild done to it). C6 auto, 9" rear, D44 front...the usual.
Also has all new engine accessories, like alternator, water pump, power steering pump. New brake master cylinder as well. The drivetrain is solid and in good shape with no leaks that I could see.
Also, the heater blower box is missing part of its cover or something, so basically it doesn't have a working HVAC system.
I know it's hard to say its approximate value without seeing it, but a general idea wouldn't hurt. They're asking $2900 but are negotiable.
Thoughts? Opinions?
Thanks in advance.
