: My '65 wagon needs a new home. This is
: a solid car that runs and drives,
: but needs some TLC. It's been a
: turnkey car for the past ten years
: or so, and everything works, but
: nothing on it is perfect. I have a
: bunch of extras that I'll include if
: someone is interested.
:
: Good points - solid body, with the
: only rust through being one small
: spot on the right rear corner of the
: roof. All the glass is good, and the
: car has factory tinted (Sun-X) glass
: all the way around, except the
: tailgate glass, which was replaced.
: Factory V8 car, now has a '66 289
: and C4, stock 2 barrel, runs good
: but smokes a bit and the tranny is
: tired. About 130K miles on the
: engine and transmission (original,
: not rebuilt). Bottom end on the
: engine is tight, top end probably
: needs valve seals. The rear axle is
: a 2.87:1 8 inch from a Granada, in
: good shape. Brakes were all gone
: through fairly recently, including a
: new dual master cylinder. Everything
: works electrically - all lights,
: heater, 2 speed wipers, etc.
: Interior is decent, but the rear
: seat and headliner need replacing.
: Nice beige dash pad, day-nite
: mirror, padded visors, remote
: driver's mirror, accessory passenger
: mirror. Front bumper and grille are
: good, and the body is decent, but
: not perfect. The car drives and
: brakes straight. Original black
: plate CA car (from Monterey),
: currently registered.
:
: Bad points - the engine and trans
: are tired, and the car runs hot on
: the freeway. Has done this the whole
: time I've owned it, and is probably
: due to crud inside the engine. The
: paint is shot, and the body needs a
: moderate amount of attention to be
: nice. No major damage, but there is
: some old work that needs redoing.
: And the one small spot of rust on
: the roof.
:
: Extra parts - any or all of these
: can be included with the car for a
: negotiable cost. I need to get rid
: of the car, so please don't ask to
: buy just the parts unless I sell the
: car without them. I have a spare C4
: transmission that's good, extra
: grille, lenses, tailgate glass, and
: misc small mechanical parts, a
: couple radiators, brake drums,
: hubcaps, and probably more as I dig
: it out.
:
: I'm asking $900 OBO for the car, or
: $1200 including the spare parts.
: Please ask questions! Photos
: available - just tell me what you'd
: like to see. Thank you for your
: interest. J. B. Long
