I agree, stick it into the Charger. After all, it's still a Cutlass.

I'd sell the painted shell, w/the interior and all the other parts (+ The Dana) for 25K firm...  Still want it? :popcrn:

Picking the Gutless up today, will post pics.  I'm going to enjoy the car for the summer.  I'll likely take it to the track a couple weekends and pop the good ol "For Sale" sign in the window and see if anyone bites.   

I'm taking the T-bird to a body shop to get cleaned up (Hood popped up on the highway a while back, so the new hood, and roof need to be painted).  After that, will hit Kijiji hard, post it for 8500$, then take best offer 6500$ and over.  Hurts selling it this low, but it's a fox body T-bird, not a Mustang...

End of the day, if the summer works out, I'll be a lil ahead, and have some good coin for the Charger's driveline.

I was more thinking i would give you $10K for everything
Put it all together and when I was done with it I would sell it back to you for $18K

at 8500$, I think I made the right decision...  I've also taken the T-bird in to get it's needed bodywork done, hopefully she'll sell quick.  Afterall, a car that's worth 12500$ in parts, should easily go for 6500$...  At least that's what I'm hoping for...  Either way, I've now got a car I can cruise anywhere  :icon_smile_big:

So after owning the car for a week, I've driven it a few times.  I must say, she's not so bad.  No balls what so ever, but that was to be expected from an untouched 350.

On another note, the Charger is coming along nicely and should be in primer soon.  Need to get the doors mounted and adjusted, and just a little more fiberglass in some small areas.

Well guys, the Canadian summer has came, and went.  I sold the Cutlass yesterday at a profit.

On the whole, a great driving experience.  Only had to put 50$ worth of a master cylinder into the car, other then that; only gas.  All in all, I'm happy with the purchase.  I'd wanted one since high school, and I can say I got it out of the way.  It is unfortunate to see it go, but at least the guy who bought it seems to want to keep it for a while.

Time to get into winter mode and start focusing on what can be done with the Charger.  :METAL:

Thanks everyone for the input!  Panned out in the end!
