Just passing on the info, I know nothing about it, guy just called out of the blue from Greensboro NC. 70 comp orange, 351 / Manual 3spd / rust in 1/4’s, unrestored original car. $7000 OBO James at 336-534-5812. Do not contact me as I know nothing.
I don’t see the resemblance yet. Keep eating those chips around the office and you’ll get there
ROFL, that same image popped through my mind when I read that, Brian.
I KNOW NUFINK!!!
That would be this car:

Comp Gold
If anyone calls, please try to get the VIN and any door tag info to submit to the Eliminator Registry and Cougar Database.
Thanks!
Crap photos even tho the price is cheap,
it would hardly encourage anyone to rush over to look at it imo
Lets see… curbside philosophizing here…
Let’s say you buy it for $7k…
Could you put new floors and patch panels on, plus a “cheap” paint job for $10-15k?
Maybe swap out the 3-speed for a modern 5-speed… for what, $1000? (I admit, I have no idea what they go for)
So that would put you into it $18k-23k … call it $20-$25k for what should be a decent appearing '70 Eliminator.
Maybe? Or am I way off base?
I would think that a nice, clean '70 Eliminator driver with a manual transmission should be able to get around $20k or so if you had to sell it. Yeah, it’s originally “only” a 3-speed car, but still, manual transmissions sell. And you would still have the 3-speed in the trunk to pass on to the next owner.
Heck, KTL isn’t that far from this car. I wonder what it would cost to have Kurt make a nice driver out of it?
Shultz!!! I’ll send you to the Russian front for this!!!
Sorry. I couldn’t help it.
