    More pictures. If I don't sell it this week, I'm just going to drive it to the scrap yard. Too many vehicles at home, and I'm a Ford person... :) I have a car lift if anyone wants to see more pix of the underneath.

    That car will scrap for like 300 bucks right now. I wouldn't scrap it.

    Drove to the scrap scales today. $353 was the quote. $400 if i toss a few old engines in the trunk that have been taking up garage space. :)
    car has been taking up space and I realize I'll never get around to restoring it.

    69GS400s ...my own amusement ride!

    whats the condition of the motor ?

    ... why not part it out ? Lots of good pickins off that hulk before its down to the bone. I bet you triple your scrap value and then still get 7/8th's of it when you take the carcass in

    Motor/car has 98k miles on it and fires up instantly. Yea I thought about parting it out, might
    go that route but the "boss" told me that she wants it gone... I took it from my aunt's
    estate with ideas on fixing it up but after 14 years realize it'll never happen. Just don't want to
    keep watching it weather away.

    A driver-condition electra with all the trimmings...I hope you find a buyer and don't scrap it. The engine alone will outlast most cars made in the past 10 years.

    Have you listed it on evilbay? I'm sure some crazed European will pay your price just to get their paws on it. ;)

    Sold. Hopefully it gets to be driven/enjoyed as a car should....rather than sit in my driveway for 14 years.

    That's awesome! Definitely post pics of any improvements you make on it. Hope the window started working for you again. I have a pic showing your guy pulling it onto his trailer with the window down. :)
