Not a surprise. I guess he doesn't really want to sell them that badly. There isn't even close to 60K worth of parts there.

I dont think he is totally out of line on asking 60k for them. Numbers mathing 4 sp blue cars are hard to find. 20k each sounds better than 25k. Trying to find someone who wants three big projects is going to be a challange.

Not sure about you, but in my experience, complete project cars bring less than the sum of the parts (if parted). None of these cars have anywhere near 20K in good parts on them. 12-15 is about top end of what I think they are worth individually, if even that much. Everyone who has an early rusty T/A always seems to think they have a Barrett Jackson car........

Only one of those cars is matching numbers. The other two may have correct (but not original) engines. After looking at the pictures closely and receiving a call from from Pat, the one with the collision damage is a car I used to own and sold just 3 or 4 years ago. Original engine is long gone, but M22 was supposed to be original (no VIN stamp on transmission). Car has some major collision repair to make it right again. Cowl is pushed back on the drivers side from the impact. On the plus side, it is the only one of the three that is not rusty. The photo showing the clean floorpan is from this car.

Thanks for that info. He did tell me that the car I was interested in was #'s matching, maybe thats why he wants 25k for that one. I may have assumed that all three where. If thats the case your right they are not worth what he wants for them.

Thanks Weranc55- you saved me a phone call. $25k is way to much for that car!

Agree. Btw the original block is in the trunk along with the heads.

[roundportponchos]

I agree,,, with. you

One looks like 1/2 RH 1/4 gone, no mention of all 3 having heads, carbs, scoops(functional) etc etc... The one painted black really looks rough, esp underneath.

Great cars done, but at what $$ cost.

I just got 0ne recently, don't feel so bad....

Were these from Ed waller in Atlanta?
