    I’ve got a buddy looking for ideally a solid 68 2 dr post car to possibly make a street strip car out of. Drive train not important just a solid body. Let me know what’s out there.

    Here's what a buddy's mom has available. Can get more pics if needed. Just some general photo's here. Door jambs and sills solid, floor overall very solid needs a few small patches. Outer fenders need a bit of work above the wheel wells.
    Every picture but the one is being rejected as to large. If you'd like additional photo's could you provide an email address?
    Asking $1800.

    There's a 72 on the passenger side (not for sale) a 67 convt on the drivers side. Beyond that a 71 post coupe that would be a great builder for someone.

    I wish he was interested in a 71. That one looks like what he’s looking for but the wrong year

    Been in contact with Steve. Possibly my buddy is leaning towards his right now. But if anyone else has leads he’s still looking. Thanks

    Is that a reclining bucket seat for sale in the engine bay of the 71?

    I'll double check. Never paid attention to it honestly.

    Max Damage I'm working on it!

    That car looks fantastic! If the interior is the white/pearl and it's nice I want it!
