I'm not ready to consider any new project purchases until I sell my '69. I might be interested later on though, if it is still around.

That is a nice ride!
I think something like that will be my next project!

I think he want's some better pics. The pics your posting really don't show the shape that the car is in.
What kind of body work does it need? etc.....

you really should borrow a good digital camera. Photos speak much louder than words, and those photos are tiny and blurry. Since the car appears to be in primer, it makes it even more difficult to see in pics (no gloss or shine).

How much rust/bondo is on the car? What do the floor pans look like condition-wise? etc...
