$3,000 USD located in Saskatoon, SK I have a new project and realize I don’t have the time to finish this one (have owned this one for over 10 years). Like most car guys sometimes (ok most times) we put in way more than we will get out and that’s why this is basically the price of the buckets, fuel tank and rear bumper centre section. Car runs and drives, the aluminum rad and electric fan keep the big lump happy even on a hot day. The front disc upgrade was a huge improvement. Body has been stripped to bare metal (everything but the hood), body rust had been previously cut out and patched (not the nicest work but had filler in it and looked decent before I stripped it) trim holes have been welded in. I was planning a colour change and thought I might as well take it to bare metal. Interior has been removed, original bench is gone (and the old carpet) but I will include a pair of Parisienne buckets (new foam and upholstery still in the boxes). Original centre section of the rear bumper had rot, will include a solid one (VERY hard to find). Details about the car: 4 Door Hardtop 401 Nailhead V8 with 4 barrel carb (325hp/445ftlbs) 2 Speed Dynaflow Transmission Power Steering Power Brakes *Engine rebuilt under previous ownership (good compression) Recent maintenance and upgrades - Front disc brake conversion (brackets, calipers, hoses, pads, discs, studs, wheel bearings) - Rear brakes (drums, shoes, cylinders) - Halogen headlight conversion - BeCool aluminum radiator with expansion tank and transmission cooler - Electric radiator fan thermostatically controlled (with manual switch) - Power steering pump - Water pump - Fuel pump - Hoses - Battery cables - Spark plugs and wires - Voltage regulator - Belts - Auxiliary gauges (volts, temp, oil pressure) - Rear lower control arms and bushings - Rear upper control arm bushings - Panhard bar bushings - Fuel tank sending unit - Fuel tank - Fuel lines - Floor and body brace rust repairs - chassis and underside treated, primed, and painted (POR15) - Rear shocks Parts not installed - Front suspension bushings - Front shocks I also have a correct original tilt column, console, and new finned aluminum valve covers available if interested.
Bump, this is a fairly rare car the first year for the Wildcat as its own model and a one year body (the same as a LeSabre other than trim). Chassis and powertrain items were shared between the Electra, Wildcat, and LeSabre.
