thanks , guys ,firebob, thats the number i came up with and exact way i stated it. 5k tops if i find the right buyer. Actually i found out today she stated it was worth 20k! i wish.. but i still wouldnt sell it , i agree its beyond money. i should have cut my losses and parted it out when i got it in 04. it was full of bodo, fiber glass, rust. a 301 and a broken th350 did i mention rust?. it did have nos front fenders on it.I ended up building the car from a catalog. only thing left when i stopped removing bad panels was the windshild frame,cowel/firewall, convertible braces and the tail panel. i pretty much replaced everything from the firewall back.
