I just purchased on EBay a 70 with no rust but faded paint, interior needs complete replacement, engine has only 5000 miles since last rebuild but got some rain water in a cylinder so it needs to be gone through, but basically the car is in pieces..the guy took it apart and started collecting parts to finish it but changed his mind..it is a 455 a/c auto p/s p/b car, I paid 3600.00 for it, plus another grand to have it shipped.. as blkcrow said it's getting pretty hard to find these cars that aren't already completely rusted out or need major body work, so in my opinion if you can get the one you are looking at for under 3k or so without the engine get it..you can get a complete 450 hp engine for around 6k..the prices are just going higher and higher and even if you didn't fix it you wouldn't lose any money cause in a year or so you could sell it for the same or more money..just my 2cents...
