Re: E-bay 400 Hardtop

Judging by the condition of the car, I agree it will almost certainly run. The straight rust-free body is worth the price of admission itself--I have just run through much more than that on a very rusty hardtop to weld in an acre of sheet metal.

Two caveats: the transmission in the trunk does not bode well, and as Randy mentioned the air filter is wrong. Leaves me to wonder if the engine is original to the car.

When you have the car sorted out they are tremendous fun to drive; very fast and capable and can be cornered (with radials) at speeds that would leave a Buick or Caddy in a ditch.
