I don't have the room for another car but this project GP interests me, he wants $4500 with the drivetrain and the ac works,
Mostly needs interior work and at some point paint and dent repair.

I think that looks pretty cool. Its definitely different. Would that be powertrain from a Camaro/Firebird? For $4,500 for a running driving car with working A/C, to me, it looks like a pretty good deal.

Like I said, if its a running driving car, with minimal rust and working A/C, then $4,500 doesn't sound too bad. I would put some Pontiac rims back on it though.

That's a pretty good deal!

I've pondered taking the l67 drivetrain out of my firebird and dropping it in my Cutlass, but I've never seen it done elsewhere on a semi budget besides that crew cab Pontiac guy in here :)

I would have done something else than he did with the turbo placement but theres a lot of good Chassis work done on that car too!

Does "very little if any rust on it now" mean that it was a rusted out POS before? I'd skip it.

The pictures in the drop box link I posted show front floor pan replacement, other than that I didn't see any other rust repairs.
