Surely if he spent another couple of hours tidying it up, taking better pictures etc he might go some way further in finding a buyer!
He's got too many projectss. (In my best winey voice)

I love that he didn’t have to open the hood to take pictures of the engine!

Too bad, it being a 4 speed and a hardtop.

Also, one of many ads where the seller preaches what you're going to get for it. after you fix it up.

Yep, I always scratch my head at that part. They know what it's worth, and
what it will be worth. They just kinda skip right past the expensive part.

Step 1: Collect underpants
Step 2: . . .
Step 3: Profit

Kind of like “easy fix.” So easy, they’re not about to bother doing it.

I think if you set your beer on that roof, it would fall through.

Project car. Oh ya she's a project alright. In fact, it would be a project just to get to the project.

A solid '64 GTO hood is worth more than that entire car as it sits right now.

Wow - I’m shocked that is in such good shape, since it no doubt hauled a lot of kids around. I had also totally forgotten about those cable-driven remote mirrors.

Nice. And the irony of making profit on a boat made it better.

I don't think any amount of time with a leaf blower is going to make a 10K car out of that one!
