Another one bites the dust as in trashed on a dirt track as opposed to living on in glory on the street.
"There is no spoon." is a quote from The Matrix movie meaning that things are only impossible if you believe they are. Well, that's my interpretation of it, anyway....

Ok so I had given up on this car however now the owner let me see it yesterday. She will sell it when she finds the title hopefully this week. No motor, has most of the engine accessories including power steering pump and giving two TH 200 4r transmissions with it. Doors sag, paint is crazy faded and peeling however … no rust except for a small hole in floor. I only saw one door ding . been sitting in a garage for 7 years like this now lost the storage. I offered $1,000.00 she wants $1300.00. I think its probably worth considering no rot.?

That car looks too nice for the dirt in my opinion. It looks nicer than my body & I know I'll have over $1000 in sheet metal/body work/paint. :(

Maybe I should find a buyer for it, make a few bucks on it and continue my search for an oval track candidate.

If was me I would. If a deal like that fell my way I would do a swap with my body & send it & the extra beater frame off to the races. Just find a good running SBC, get it running good, flip/trade with cash for a car that would be better on the track than the street.

In case ya hadn't noticed, we don't take too kindly to the notion of turning a decent car into a dirt tracker. Pretty much anything else goes, although some members get wadded up over big rims, too.

I have noticed yes, no problem I have a car. Not as old as the G bodies... and I don't feel real good about seeing them go to hell
