Re: [Amc-list] Ooooops, and Awwwwww. Ummmmm, anyone interested in...



Yeah, I know your probably not in shape to do it either.
What would you consider for trade off?
I got piles of "stuff. 
I bet you got more and better.
Most of what I got is local, somewhat battered, rusted etc;
Mostly 65-66 Ambassador, driver quality stuff.
I also am scheduled to go away with my family over Easter, so I don't dare over do it, or she will kill me.
I have a 287 together, maybe good, maybe needs a chain, was not stuck last time I checked showed 60K on odometer. I got one 327 that I could let go, but its just a core motor at best I haven't torn it down enough to tell for sure. I got a 327 4bbl manifold I could let go, over the years I've ended up with three.
   There's always cash, depending on the total contribution required of course!
If plain Jane is a nice a body as you say it is, I fear it's appearance will be the end of the convertible project from hell...
