You would not be sorry. My father is too old to complete it and you could probably part it out for more money. Upgrades galore.

Reconditioned to like new. Ready to be rebuilt. My dad was a stickler for details. Sadly, dementia ended his restoring days.

I'm gonna bump this, because I looked at the car. IMO it is worth a drive if you are in FL.

I want it, but I won't for a couple reasons.....

I would only build it with and for my daughter...but I will probably buy her a new car for safety reasons as it would be her 1st car.
I just finished a never ending build lol
I don't have room and would have to store it.

and honestly, the 12A was a let down for HP reasons....but I know they are impossible to find in good shape.

That being said... I WISH I FOUND SOMETHING LIKE THIS FOR A BASE BUILD! (although I love the 79-80 dash and seats and bumpers on my ride)

It is legit. I did not look it over in depth (meaning all the new parts boxes etc)

I can say the rotor housings look great! I only looked at the front side housing looked great... it was the only one I looked at, as I was satisfied this car was legit. The underbody looks great. I saw no rust...., the under body and rubber plugs look new, it has been coated with eastwood products, the whole underside looks MUCH better than I have seen for a car that age. It's said to have 60k miles and 2nd owner. they knew the previous owner. Looks like it has been in a garage for 20 years. It's tight IMO...but don't hold me to it. ALL the original parts I saw had been blasted and painted. You can see someone put a LOT of time in this car.

wish I had the time, room and 12A experience to do it. This is one that doesn't deserve a V8 convesion IMO.
