Good afternoon all

I was a member of the NVCC a few years back and have a 1965 4dr Sedan that
I'm currently looking to sell.  I'm moving to California in 6 months and
don't want to pay to ship the car cross country.

It's a 110hp 2 speed Powerglide that shifts well. Corvair Ranch replaced
the engine about a year ago with a good one for $900.  it's originally a
Pennsylvania car that shows some rust spots where the paint's worn away. 
I had Jeff also replace a section of sheet metal where the driver's door
is on the body as it was especially bad.  It's got some patch spots from
what I assume was a previous owner's attempt to repair or cover up rust
areas.

Things I know are wrong with it:

    Needs a new carpet
    Driver's seat has a couple of seams coming apart
    car needs to be repainted and rust spots repaired (one in the wheel
well of the front driver's side)
    Needs new trunk rubber
    AM Radio has a short in it somewhere. I can get it to work for a day
or two, stops working again.
    It's leaking oil from... somewhere. The underbody of the car is has
some in it from about the middle back, my only guess is that it's
leaking and running forward.

Parts replaced or upgraded:

    Clark's Ultimate Oil Pan
    Back seat replaced with one from Corvair Ranch
    Engine replaced 2010, less than 500 miles since replaced
    Clark's premium plug wires
    Replaced door panels with ones from Corvair Ranch


I'm not in a rush to get rid of it, but I'd be interested in offers. 
Figured I would give the club first stab at it.

My email is aaronpayne at me.com.  The car's been garaged at my apartment in
Ashburn since August 2010, prior to that time it was at the Corvair Ranch
for approx. 16 months.  I have some pictures here:

If you'd like to see the car in person or other pictures, shoot me an
email.


Thanks for taking a look,
Aaron Payne
