im looking at this car for sale
its a 78 pace car
350/350 (does that mean it has the l-48 engine?)
78,000 miles
4 spd
numbers matching
seller says it needs a paint job

asking price is 9000

other info i recieved....

The engine is a 350/350 and all but the valve covers and air cleaner are
>original, although I have the original air cleaner parts. I also installed
>a Flow Master exhaust which is louder than stock, but enables better
>performance. The car does need to be repainted along with some other
>cosmetic details. It is mechanically sound and needs just a little bit of
>love to restore.

is 9000 a good deal?

also like i said...is it the l-48 engine?

Metal Wulf

a 350/350 wasn't offered in '78, unless he worked over the original engine...

also paint job for a pace car will run you 6k+


I'd talk him down as much as possible, not worth 9k
