I need more money
A guy i work with told me about this car a couple years ago . He knows i tinker with the old stuff . He said his dad raced it back in the 60's and then it got parked .He had it stored at a friends and things started missing like bright work the original grill and shell and the 6 pack that was on it . In the 70's he brought it back out to his place and put it in the barn where it has sit ever since . Still has the 283 and 4 spd with a 55 Olds rear end with the spiders welded .
I told him man that car is worth alot and his dad could get a penny for it . Now if i was dishonest i could have maybe picked it up cheap but i let him know the value it could have . Well it didn't last long when i handled it for him and put it up for sale . Less then 1 hour is all it took .

Thanks Bobby for posting it, I've been looking for a good pic of those valve covers. I'd really like to find a set of those chrome covers in good condition, the pic will let me show people what I'm looking for.
