The reason I am selling this car is that I am retiring
to Canada and the
house we are moving to has only room for 2 cars and
the 7 is #3. This car
needs a lot of the detail work to be finished. There
are new bolts for the
front suspension to be installed, the nose needs some
fiberglass work, one
of the front suspension arms needs to be replaced, the
rear of the car needs
the wiring installed, the rear fenders need some
cracks repaired, the front
fenders need to be finished. I will continue to work
on these projects as
time permits but if someone would like it as is the
price is $19,000. If I
end up completing the rebuild then the price will go
up accordingly.
