Hey new guy here.... looking at buying a 78 Landau thats black w/a 50/50 bench and maroon interior, its got a 350/350 with a 650 edelbrock carb and intake with true dual. The motor/trans has 10k and the body has 98k. The only problem is the guy was going to have the rear seat reupholstered but the upholstery went out of business and never returned his seat. The other problem is the bumpers have been repainted with what looks like krylon spray pant and their starting to fad and peal. The guy is asking 1,950 but I think since its not original or complete I'm a offer him 1,700 and walk. I have some pics on cardomain so you guys can see what I'm looking at.


I need to know what to look out for as far as frame and body root and what year g body's will interchange seats. I also need to know how you can tell the difference between a 2 and 4 bolt 350's thanks

Welcome!

You won't be able to see the difference between a 2 and 4 bolt SBC without pulling the oil pan.

As far as places to check for rust... door bottoms, rockers, floors, frame rails behind the rear tires and wheel well lips are the first places to look.
