This one is for sale if anyone is looking for one.  Not desperate to sell, 
it is just spare now that I have some other projects.   It is a nice daily 
runner.   Not a show car, not perfect.   Heater has been gone through with 
a new control cable.


'66 Monza Convertible
Original color was Regal Red
New Top, well, insulation and pads

Many new seals - front bow, pillar etc.  Needs conv top seals.
Recent tires

Body:
Needs paint.   Currently primer red so it is all one color, this car has 
had a lot of paint jobs in the past that need to be stripped off.
Had some rust holes from sitting with dirt in the body.  Not from salt. 
I have welded in new metal in  some of these.
There still are a number of small holes to weld.   This is nothing bad or 
terminal, just needs to be carefully evaluated by a potential buyer so 
there are no surprises.  The car is solid with no flex.
No collison damage, just a few small dings -  no dents
POR-15 on solid floors
All lights work
New '69 Camaro front spoiler
New gas tank and lines

I will sell without the engine if someone plans to put a late engine in 
it.   I 
built this one to be economical and reliable, but it is not a speed demon.

I know there is a lot more in it then it is worth.   That said I have so 
many projects right now.   Not looking to make money on this, just find it 
a good home for a fair price.   What is it worth to you?  I would like 
$4000 as it sits, but am negotiable.
