what about the VIN....22387...maybe a typo?

And......"put the interior in and a little wipe down under the hood and you're just about ready for the shows!"

I think it may have been wrote down wrong?
The cowl tag would show the 22387 however.
(no actual VIN plate pic)

455 HO decal on scoop?
Power steering reservoir?

Driver's door is not original. Lots of other parts are not. Big patch in the floor.

Agreed. WS4 on the trim tag suggests it's a real '70 T/A.

But given everything it needs, that is an incredibly/ridiculously optimistic price.

I always wondered why someone does not just finish a car when 85% of the work is already done? Also, If you spend big money for the laser straight paint job, why not spend another 3-4k to rebuild the original motor? My guess is that the motor is not re-buildable! $59k is just too much for a car that is not done and without the original motor installed.

Met this seller. While I have made out OK in my past dealings before he started Ebaying stuff, others have not and you need to be on guard. Pigs in lipstick come to mind.

Car in questions sees to be just that. Probably not bad but upper teens to low 20's would be more realistic. WOuld need to see before & during pictures before I would negotiate further.
