Description

This is a bit of an unusual situation as I did not plan on selling the car when I bought it as a cool vehicle to haul stuff with 3 months ago, owever it turns out the car needs the frame repaired under the bed as the sections that bend up over the wheels have rust cracks. The radiator cross member also needs to be fixed. The previous owner did some really crappy repairs to the rust, nd it isn't worth it to me to try to fix it as I have a number of other projects.
I tried to get pictures of the problem areas that were pointed out by my mechanic while it was up on the lift, f you would like a better look you are more then welcome to come by and see the car in person. I do not have a lift and can not take anymore pictures of the underside. It has a 350 V8 (I was told it is a 1970 block) backed by a th400 and dual exhaust. The interior is presentable but would only be considered daily driver quality.
It is a shame that the frame has cracks because it runs and drives really well, nd I am still using it as a hauler and occasional cruiser. My mechanic gave it a very thorough going over and has replaced and freshened up all fluids, one over the brakes, erformed a tune-up, nd installed new shocks among other things. It has power steering and manual brakes that stop even and straight, nd the engine fires right up and runs very well. I've taken the car on 50 mile trips without hesitation, nd if it were not for the rust cracks I would keep it. But with a '78 Trans Am and '71 Riviera I have other cars I'd rather devote my time and energy. As I said I still drive and use it so it does have valid tags and insurance, nd I would be more then willing to arrange a test drive for anyone in the Baltimore area. Fun fact: this 1969 Chevrolet El Camino Custom was built right here in Baltimore at the old GM plant off Broening Highway!
