So here's my issue... I bought my '67 bird for $6,500 last week and it's a rust bucket. Much worse than I thought. The subframe mounts are even rusted out! The car is ready to snap in half. It's an original low output 326 completely overhauled and original 4 speed car. I love the car but I'm stuck as I'd never be able to get my money back... I'm looking at a solid rolling chassis '67 for $1,500. Was thinking that I could canabalize the two... Thoughts everybody? Want the cheapest most effective route. No I'd never afford a solid original 4 speedbird. I know what these cars go for so please don't suggest that :-/
