1964 belvedere

This is a car that was in a wrecking yard and they were about to crush. I seen it had real good trim and sheet metal so I didn't want to see it gone forever. They had broke all the glass out, or sold it, so the carpet got wet and the floors are gone. There is a little rust in lower left quarter behind the wheel opening, and a small hole in lower rear front fender. The rear window frame is amazingly rust free as well as the cowl top at rear hood. The car is pretty straight. It has a hood and trunk lid but they have some bullet holes in them. I paid 600 for the car and then tracked down the original owner and paid her 200 to go get me a new title. so I have 800 in it. I believe the good sheet metal is worth that. But I also believe this isn't a bad car to do a rotisserie resto on. I hope I can get a little more than that for my time. I also hope you don't think I'm crazy, I saved her. So if you feel so inclined make me an offer and in a month or so I'll see what my best offer is Thanks, Kent.

glad you saved it!i don't understand scrappers,they'll crush it for 200.00,but if a person offers that to them they won't sell it!or want 3x's scrap price,i lost track of how many i've seen lost to the crusher.again restore em,don't crush em!

Wow, what a find. You are not crazy for saving it! Replacing the floors would be worthwhile to bring it back to life, in my opinion.
