Hey there, with a heavy heart I decided to sell my project.
I love the car but have to sell it before moving out of province. Hundreds of hours invested in fixing it and thousands of dollars in parts. Car runs and drives, brakes used to more or less work till I started to service one of the rear drums, this is where one of the rear brake lines got broken, i can give a new line if i find it, but it needs to be installed. The rest of the drums need to be serviced. I have drums, shoes and hardware for the rear. Floors are cleaned and treated with POR15 3 step rust protection (there are a couple 1mm holes on the driver floor pan and in the trunk), overall in good shape. New vinyl top is installed, roof is fixed, all channels fixed. Tires are ancient, with cracks but hold air. The car goes with the original 14x7 wheels with nice original caps. Wiring is fixed, all the lights and turn lights work, heater works, wipers work, power steering works.
Now the issues besides brakes: The interior was gutted out by the previous owner, so I had to collect it piece by piece, hence the clown colors all over. The idea was to have Parchment interior, so i have new rear interior panels in Parchment. Door panels are in good shape, can be fixed and painted. Got bucket seats, but they are black. Currently they are bolted to the floor but i have the original brackets to be welded in. Rear seat will need to be reupholstered. Full or partial reupholstery kit and panels can be found on OPGI in Grand Prix/Parisienne department, roughly it's 1000 dollars for all seats. Console is from 65 Impala, shifter is not connected to transmission, so currently it's a column shift car. I have all the parts to convert it back to floor shift. Frame has an easy to fix hole around rear well. Radio's status is unknown as it's disconnected from speakers and the antenna is broken.
Located in Maple Ridge, BC.
Price is 9000CAD

Thanks, well.. the new one will need some work to be done too, it has even more clown colors inside and outside and missing whole stainless panels kit on the bottom, it's going to be hard to find:)
Sure. It's going straight to a shop for maintenance and brake job, I haven't actually picked it up yet. But as soon as I get it into my garage I'll post. It's got an embarrassing red color with metal flakes though, so I'll have to repaint it into fountain blue in a few years.
