In the mid 70's, I bought a rust free 69 Mach 1, red on red, 351 4bbl, automatic. Hit in the left rear when parked. I just wanted the engine, trans, and posi for a 54 F100. Sold the fenders for $10.00 a piece. Think I got $20.00 for each door. Paid $250.00 for the car.
In 1980, I bought a 70 RA3 GTO, automatic, factory wing car, excellent sandlewood interior, numbers matching everything, complete with all RA pieces for $800.00. Car was rusty, hit in the rear, roof was crushed some from a tree falling on it when the car was in the garage. Bought this one to fix a 1970 Judge that was rust free, but needed every thing besides body parts. Paid $500.00 for that one, and I had to think about it a few days.
In 1985, I parted a 1970 Lemans Sport, factory bucket seat, 4 speed car.
Also, a 68 or 69 Lemans OHC 6 for a friend, and another 69 Mach 1 for the F100.
All repairable today, except for the last two.
