Re: what's it worth?

[Don Gallimore <dongallimore@xxxxxxx>]

Convertible - good, 318 - no impact on price (factory 383/426 car will 
impact it.)  Looks like some rust in the rocker panels.  I'd price it in 
the $5,000 to $7,500 range if the top framework is all there.  This car 
fully done will fetch $18-25,000.  As always, you need to have a buyer 
with the cash to take it on.

I'm building a '65 Satellite Convertible that essentially came in 
pieces.  It's not easy or quick.  Trying to get it to Carlisle this 
year.  Gonna be close.

I'm poor so we did a lot of trades for parts and labor and I did a lot of the work myself. I'd pay him something whenever I had something and when I had built up a fair amount we'd spend a day or two on it. We pulled it apart and put in all new floorpans and frame connectors(big ones- 2x4 tubing). Then he went out of business and it sat at his house for 5 years or so until the city got on him and I moved it to my place. Then the city got on me and I have it at another buddy's place.
