Poor No. 299. It would be a real challenge bringing this one back to life. I hate to see the earliest N. American cars in this state. Probably end up as a parts car for someone.

Oh man...what a waste...

It actually doesn't look as bad as I was expecting from your description. Lots of people here have replaced floor pans and frame rails so if you're going to do that anyway I suppose it doesn't matter how far gone they are. The body doesn't look that bad, the bumpers look good and even the battery tray appears to be present. Obviously I'd want to see more pictures but it certainly looks better than Chris's #27.

Looked better than #248!

Now:

And #299 is a relatively complete car! But being on the backside of a complete restoration, I know that someone would easily be at +30K to do the restoration well.

I've seen *far* worse. The rust monster hasn't eaten her up yet, but that having been said, it's a major undertaking.

If it were closer i would buy it....

That looks like mine!!! Its restorable..... but not by me!

Just read the Questions: NO CLEAR TITLE!!!! that would be impossible in KY and similar states to get plates = PARTS CAR

She'll/He'll live.

Just alot of mud and dirt over good body panels.

Alot of similar ones at the towyard up from me, all of them

restorable

And don't even think about trying to get it through the border...

That title can of worms is the worst of it. He didn't say "no title", he said "No clear title" meaning there is a title with leans, meaning the car was probably stolen at some point-who would take out a loan to buy a car in that shape-or why would someone buy a car in better shape and not pay it off. Huge RED FLAG...If you are looking at this car, get the title info as it is and figure out if it can be sorted out before buying her-worst case Ebay pulls the Auction because the seller isn't actually the owner.
