69 GTO Convertible Restomod project LY6/T56

[borrone821]

Selling my 69 GTO convertible. Bought it back in 2010, stripped it, got it sandblasted and primed. Replaced entire floor, trunk, quarters, wheelwells, and fender patches. Everything now sitting in black SP Epoxy primer. Only bodywork remaining is gapping, and some minor fill work on the doors.

Currently has an LY6/T56 (~18k miles on motor and trans) in it with a new LS7 clutch/flexplate/hydaulic lines/etc... no fuel system yet so it isn't running. Motor not wired up yet either but I have the ECU and harness. Brand new body harness from Painless. Seats from an 05 GTO. Brake system is converted over to discs using 00 F-body brake system and BRP adapter set.
I have all chrome and pieces to complete the car.
Suspension completely rebuilt using all Moog balljoints and bushings and Koni shocks

I've got ~$15k into it and know I'm going to take a bath on it. I just don't have the time to finish, and with a new house, I won't anytime in the near future. Willing to sell with or without the drivetrain.

Thanks for looking
Jim

looking to get $12k but willing to entertain offers... I really just don't have time to work on it

[SShep71]

Too bad Im in Afghanistan or I would have looked into this project. Maybe if its still around in a year Ill take a better look. GLWS man!

[borrone821]

[borrone821]

nothing, eh?

[dhutton]

I might be interested if it was closer. Just too far away.

[borrone821]

yeah, being up in Mass and getting closer to winter isn't helping

[SShep71]

Did you ever sell the car or do you still have it?

[borrone821]

Still got it Shep.

[SShep71]

Can you email me some pics I sent you my email address to your inbox.

[borrone821]

Car still for sale... Shep I responded to your pm

[borrone821]

Still for Sale. throw out a reasonable offer. It's just taking up space in my garage

[paulpritt11]

Did you ever sell the car?

[borrone821]

Yeah, sold the car back in March. Really didn't want to but I hadn't touched it in 9 months since we bought the house.
Picked up a 68 cutlass with an LY6 about 3 months ago; will be doing the interior soon.

[paulpritt11]

Ah, too bad. It's exactly the kind of thing I want to do on that car. I had a '68 20 years ago and have been thinking of a restomod for awhile. I used to be the type that wanted all numbers matching stuff, but I've kind of changed my mind. Had a Vette that was low mileage, numbers matching and just sat in my garage...don't want to do that again. Picking up where you left off was an interesting idea to me. And you picked up a Cutlass, eh? We just can't help but go back can we? Oh, well....there are worse habits to have! Good luck with the Cutlass!
