hi, i am looking at buying a 67 ss, it was an original 396 4 speed car, it is complete but the date code on the motor is from a 69. it is in need of a body off resto to be in show room condition but could be a decent daily driver with a splash and dash paint job. i am in canada, the guy wants 15,000. what do you folks think of that price, estimates of about 30,000 to complete the body off resto is what i have been told. any imput is appriciated, thanks and chevelles rule! :hurray:

Matt -

Need more info in order to give you a good answer. First things first - are you sure it's an SS? 138 VIN? Next, what kind of shape is the body in? Need quarters, rockers, fenders, trunk, and floors, or just a little bodywork and paint job? Interior in good shape? What options - P/S, P/B, etc? What is it missing? Have you been underneath the car to check out the frame and floors? Original color combo (interior and exterior)? Current color combo?

Pics are worth 1,000 words if you can post some.

Also, is $15,000 CDN or US?
