    Car will include a complete GS breather assembly and GS hood with scoops.
    It looks like a mess I know but really isn't bad,..its just apart if that scares you,..then obviously this isn't for you. If you can operate some hand tools and perform some simple task you can have a running driving legit GS with 455 power for less than 10k. I drove it when it was together it ran strong with no smoke or noise other than the exhaust leak. It can set for weeks on end and with one push of the pedal to set the choke it fires rite up every time.

    Whatever you see missing will be provided in some capacity

    Looks like a pretty nice solid project. Just so I know, body parts would be bolted back on for transport. Glass or no? Asking for a customer. Thanks a lot

    Yes it would all be bolted back together,.I've got a good windshield I think,..not positive but otherwise yes the glass, bumper, hardware etc all are present

    When you say "needs interior" what do you mean? Nothing there? Everything shot? Seat frames? Thanks for clarification.

    Looking for a project. Not in line yet.

    Everything is present just needs replacement,..headliner, door panels, rear seat covers, I have a better front seat out of a 4door. Dash pad is cracked but I have a better one I'll throw in. But everything is there,..I have a set parchment standard door panels put up I believe that were pretty decent I would throw them in if a man wanted as well

    Ethan,

    How much would you charge for paint/bodywork as a white X clone? No hurry. In other words, all in as is with a nice paint job and stripes? I don’t care about interior or drivetrain.

    Checking to see if it is still available? I would be very interested if it is. I'm in Northern Virginia, right outside of Washington, DC.
    Thanks,
