Default 1973 my baby is for sale

I have a started project, this car runs and drives like a dream an I was doing a frame on restoration. I lost my job so now I lose my baby!
No body damage, original numbers matching car, I have all the parts including a new front bumper. Mileage is unknown, 130psi compression on cylinders L-48, Automatic, PS, PB and AC. Again! This is a project car and I have the rearend out (needs new stub axles) as well as the trailing arms which have been painted and ready for new bushings to go back in. The car is in great restorable shape of you want a project. I also have started scraping the paint in a couple of spots. Original color was dark metallic blue.
Here is the link to my restoration thread.

This car restored will make you very happy!












Lots more picture in my restoration thread as well as you can see the kind of work I was doing on the car. It's killing me...

Hi FC,
I was wondering what had happened once your 'progress posts' stopped so suddenly!
Good Luck!

It looks like you and I are doing the same restore from the ground up. My frame is being worked over now, new bushings everywhere, shocks springs, new engine, trans...then a complete new interior is setting in another shop.

You are doing a great job.....Keep pluggin away and get it done.
