Another case of interesting, but not terribly valuable.

I've seen a decent number of leave sport coupes popping up through the years, especially recently. Unfortunately, they're of the age in these parts where titles can be optional/retired in the system.

I've seen them 500 -6000, but not worthwhile.

There is about 6 people in the US that are capable of getting the thing running well. Sadly I am one of them. The good news is I am out of space.

Haha

Kinda like being capable of being a drinking game 'Quarters champion - wow, not many better than me, but not a large calling for it.

Looking at your photos of this car, I could see me grabbing it and........................................LS with a turbo for 3 reasons - no value in keeping it original even if the body was great, TH400 and factory 8.5 rear. The last two will handle everything you want to chuck at them for a long time.

And I'd be willing to bet that you can sell a crap load parts off that motor that are unobtainium from a parts store.


With that in mind, do as you please and do what makes you happy - it's your car. I love those boats.

Would it be a TH400? I would hope so. I assume they also didn't swap to the 7.5" at that point.
