Hey guys,
I have been a long time looker of pro-touring.com and figured now is my time. After recently being scammed while trying to purchase a 69 camaro and lost a little money in the process I am quite skeptical of the car community to say the least. I have recently had twin girls on New Years Eve and am looking for a nice car that I can enjoy with them for years to come. Over the last year or so I have driven to see close to 40 cars, so without a First Gen sitting in my driveway I thought I would reach out to the community in hopes of some help. I am located in Orlando Florida if you all know of anything out there
I am looking for a really nice driver car. (not a trailer queen)
Must Haves:
Must be Manual
Coupe only - no verts.
Body work and paint must be done - Really looking for a black or silver car (I have seen a couple nice blue 68's though)
No Rust
I would be alright changing the color of the car if its the right one. But the budget has to work out in order to do so.
Obviously my goal would be to do a LS car. But have yet to find the right one. So would like a 396 for the time being.
Would really like a 67 as most people have a 69 and I just like the look of the 67.
Would likes:
Disc Brakes
Power Steering
A/C (I am ok with installing this if it doesn't have it)
All in all the people I have spoken with about their cars have been really nice. (besides a few scam artists) What is amazing is that one persons idea of perfect restoration and mine seem to be totally different.
Once again I think the community always provides valuable input and would love to hear from you all. Thanks in advance. Kris
Ideally I started my search looking to spend around 25k but the more and more I look I think I am up to 35k
