i just found a 68 chevelle that I'm thinking about buying to use for parts to fill in on my present 68 chevelle. Apparantly, it's a project car in the works, with knobs and such in a box, distributor out of engine, but some stuff redone, or so they say.
What my question is, is how have you all had luck parting out desirable cars that are non-SS?
I'd have to sell it parts/whole, as I could never drag a classic chevelle off the junkyard.
I really hadn't planned on getting a parts/restorable car to use to aid me, as my budget is on the tight side, but this car has the original 307/powerglide i believe, bucket seats that I can use, etc, for $400
I'm sure I could get more back out of it, as the back seat was just redone, and a new dash, but as I said, I'm wondering how people make out selling out parts, etc, as most would most likely have to be shipped(headaches).
I know the car is worth it, as I seem to get the impression the guy doesn't want to part with it, but I'm wondering how well you do on recouping back the cost.
Heck, maybe if it's decent I'll try to talk my brother into getting it so we can have matching cars and he can stop desiring imports.
