Dude I don't want to be a know it all, but the only thing good on that mother****er is the VIN tag. Spend the money up front and buy something 90% done or turn key. Much cheaper at the end, and you can enjoy it immediately.

Agreed....It’s $100K + to turn that into anything special

You're not a know it all, I feel the same way you do.
Like I said this was an excuse to get Blondie out of the house. If this thing were something really special, which I'm sure it's not I may consider it. It's scrap metal plain and simple. Sad too.

I had a 66 GTO with 389 and tri-power that I completely restored. One of the few cars I wish I’d kept out of too many to count.

My Dad's 66 GTO was the heart pumper for me. 421 30 over, balanced with 400 RAM air 3 heads, 3 dueces, M21 4 speed, 4:11 12 bolt with ladder bars.
And he knew how to tune it and drive it.
