He just posted more pics! The interior looks good except the driver's seat. Wonder how hard it would be to find a new block....The car is a 1965 wildcat, it has the 425 nailhead engine, with a automatic transmission, the rust is in the typical places, the trunk and a few small holes on the hood luckily the hoods small holes aren't in any creases and they're on the flat part so it can e easily fixed, the from pictures you can tell the seats need some upholstery work, it needs a headliner, the carpet has been ripped out because it was gross and to make sure the floor boards were solid, the corners of the car are solid, the suspension area in the back is good this is where rust usually occurs I was told, it's missing one windshield wiper and comes with extra chrome pieces like some for over the wheels wells, the hoods middle piece and front trim

I'm interested....I don't know why.

I have a 364 engine of unknown condition that I could try to get running.

 

I need to ask Marck what he would charge to deliver.....and Ted if he has a spare running engine just in case.....

 

I just need 1 more garage space....  :)

 

The guy pretty much just refuses to send additional pictures and is rather short when responding to questions.

I think the only way I would ever be interested in this, is if it was close enough that I could grab the trailer and pick it up in an hour.  This car appears to be a money pit that you will never recoup any investment.  Might be a fun beater if you can get it running on the cheap.

Fun beater is what I was thinking. I'm sure it's a money pit.

 

No cheap spare engine locally though and like I said, my 364 is of unknown condition.  :(

 

Cincinnati is about 450 miles. 

 

Ugh...decisions, decisions. The wife said no...but that's never stopped me before! :)

 

There's also that red '74 Apollo in Lakewood, New Jersey....
