Have a few classic cars that have been sitting for a very long time that I'm looking at parting with. One is a 1968 350 Firebird, hardtop, powerglide on the column, bronze w/ cream interior. Bought it as a daily driver then parked it when tranny died. Car has been sitting for 20-25 years under a canopy & tarp - located in the Santa Cruz Mountains in the San Francisco area so does get very damp here in the winter along with various rodents running about. Car has a huge dent in the drivers rear quarter panel but the rest of the car is all original and I have a center console and a set of the Pontiac rally wheels with trim rings in the garage (was going to try to swap a 350 turbo trans and floor shifter in it)
I need to post photos of the factory plate and the car itself but I assume it would at least be good for parts or a major restoration so trying to figure out what it might be worth.... Thanks!

Probably worth more parting it out than trying to sell it whole.

Rest of the photos. Sorry couldn't take any photos of the rear end right now but it is intact, original and accident free (aside from the quarter panel damage you see). I know the trunk floor was pretty shot though. The rally wheels and console are buried in the garage but are in very good shape. I think I still also have a later model Pontiac 350 turbo trans as well.

Did it get flooded? All the branches, particularly around the steering wheel looks kind of odd.

Yah I know, it's odd but no flooding. I'm up in the mountains and that was all carried in by small forest critters....

I bet it smells wonderful in there I've worked on birds in that shape. Takes a lot of dryer sheets to combat the smell.

I wasn't ready for that interior shot.
If you need me I will be curled up in the fetal position under my desk rocking back and forth.

Oh my. Still you're close enough to me to come have a look. See if there is anything salvageable. Send me an email with contact info.

My 2 cents: clean the car up, wash and put it on Craigslist, for about 2-3000 you will sell it. If you have more time adjust your price up, and see what the crazies will give for it.
