Do you have to get that done before you can do the remainder work?

Completely correct looks like $100k car!!!
Me thinks he would have been disappointed when the bidding petered out below $30K. Surprised he's offering it at less than $25,000 now. Looks to be worth near that, if just for a nice clean good looking driver.
*edit* just spotted one major drawback: it has a TH350 instead of TH400. Like Gary said, that's kind of clueless/stupid.

I kind of wonder it's actually even a 400 car... In spite of what the breather stickers say. I haven't seen too many LeMans with factory 400. I'm not that 'up' on them though. Have you guys?

I noticed that, too. Not sure how it can be a LeMans post coupe "all #s Matching everything 2 owner car" and "Completely correct looks like $100k car!!!" Judge clone at the same time? The biggest motor you could get in a LeMans in 1969 is a 350.

The car that this should be cloned into? The 1969 ET prototype.

Exactly what I thought when I looked at it. It would have generated an entirely different conversation on this forum!

"Good for parts or restoration". I beg to differ.

Looks like that car was parted long ago. Next stop is the crusher.

Can you title a car as a "Pimpmobile" ?

This CL post has been getting reposted for well over a year now. I apologize if this add is from a fellow member, but this door looks to be recycle material. Pops up as a new listing every few weeks.
