Responded to a local Craigs List ad selling a 66 Riviera GS (actually a 68) for $500, less engine. The seller sounds younger and even said he had more important things to do then sell this car. He was very motivated to sell, but not to do any of the response work. Dropped the price to $300. It took 3 emails to get him to call me.

But.... he says it is complete less the 430, is fully equipped GS including buckets and console, Buick road wheels and center caps and is actually a 68/69.

I am debating either a parts car strip it purchase or as a future restoration project. It's actually only 10 minutes away, but I am gone from November 5 through November 10 on vacation.

What do you guys think? Are there enough parts and enough demand to make it worth my while parting this out over the winter?

If after looking at it and it's what the seller claims, it's worth the money which ever direction you decide to go. A later 455 designed to run on unleaded fuel would make for a really nice driver. It's not in the Kansas City area is it?
