Not much info given by the seller, but it looks like it could be a low mile original car for 10K. Would be worth a look for somebody nearby, though I imagine a flipper will have it soon if it is that good.

Starter or engine stuck? I'd be taking a pry bar and a socket!

Well, that licence plate is one of those 1973-issue series, as would be the case for something that hasn't changed hands in decades.

It could be a real find!

Sure looks like a decent one, couldn't make a rusty one that nice for the money. Great project IMO

It would be worth checking out for sure however I'd be even more leery that it needs more than a starter given how it looks like it hasn't moved in years. On the other hand maybe it was parked when the starter gave out?

The extra pics seem to confirm that it is a nice clean (under the dust) original car.  All the usual spots for potential rust issues, like the wheel arches, lower quarters, bottom of the fenders, trunk lid rear seam, etc. appear to be good (from what we can see of them).  I didn't notice any visible bubbles under the vinyl roof.  Too bad about the newspaper in the trunk, but I suspect the trunk floor is probably good as well.  The interior appears to be mint.

A '68 2+2 with everything there, and potentially minimal rust has to be worth $10K, even if the 327 is seized, IMHO, especially in today's market.  That said, it looks like it's been stored in a dry environment, so if the engine is stuck, maybe a little spray and soak of some penetrating oil in the spark plug holes might be enough to do the trick.  The plates look like the '73 items, but I can't make out the stickers to see when it was last on the road, but suffice it to say it's probably been a long time, so you'd want to go through it anyhow.

Thanks for posting this - it's refreshing to see a nice original car up for grabs.  Frankly I'm surprised a flipper hasn't gotten their hands on it yet, but maybe there's too much work to be done other than just backing it off the trailer.

I hope somebody gets it who can appreciate it for what it is.  Wish I were in the position to do so, TBH...

I would have been for sure checking it out had I not just moved up the car chain.

Looks like the ad is still active.  I'm surprised that nobody has snapped it up as yet.
