WTB 67 Coupe A/C Preferred
 
Shades suggested I post this in this section. Any help is appreciated.

At the end of the day I want to end up with a 67 Coupe Black with Red interior 4sp and A/C that is a really nice driver. How I get there does not matter as far as originality, in the color combination or engine.

Exterior: It does not have to be an original black car it can be a color change. I can work with a project but no basket cases. If the car has been stripped or needs a repaint fine. If I need to change the color that is fine. No fender flares or major body work that needs to be done.

Interior: Would like to find a red interior to start with but will be willing to convert over to red. Original A/C would be great but an add on system is fine. If there is no A/C I can put a system on. 4sp a MUST.

Engine: Big or small block or no engine at all does not matter. Originality does not matter. A Big Block clone or conversion is fine.

WHAT I DO NOT WANT:
A NCRS Top Flight OR High dollar car.
Any other year, 67 ONLY
No convertibles

As you can see there are many scenario's to arrive at my ultimate goal. So as far as dollars that all depends on what I am starting with and what needs to be done. There is not a open check book here so I do not want to be upside down if I need to change something over to make it what I want.

Check... Gullwing Motorcars, and Beverly Hills Car Club... both stock midyear project cars as you describe. Keep an eye on them too, their inventory can change daily...

I had a few ideas until I got to this part. :Jeff '79:
Never restored an old car that I was in the black on.

On a serious note, good luck with your search. Per your area code, you're not too far from Carlisle. Other than the usual high $$$ trailer queens, there is a good selection of uncompleted projects to choose from. :cert:

This is along the lines of your wish list. (Paint & A/C notwithstanding )

The Google sees all.

Black driver '67's must be harder to find than I thought, or Mike's budget is too small to buy what he wants... I don't think he intends to be a time-wasting troll.

It shouldn't take that many years to find one. There are more original black on red 67 big block cars now than built by gm. It is just a matter of paying 100,000 asking price.

I've seen "driver" condition C2's in the 20s and 30s. Maaco will paint any car any color for $600. Not everyone needs a concours resto.
