I'm new, and looking for advice on a purchase

Posted by GDat210 On 2014/9/28 20:06:07

I'm a 16 year old teenager looking for a cool project to ride around in. I had been looking for Fords and Chevrolets, but ran across this Packard in Louisiana.
here's what I have to ask:
1. is the price fair?
2. how much work would it potentially be to get the straight 8 to run?
3. is this the Packard 200?
4. How hard would a V8 SBC swap be? part availability & price is the biggest factor in why I want to swap it.
thanks for any advice and help, in advance. Here's the link to the ad.http://batonrouge.craigslist.org/cto/4644638447.html
