Not mine http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/cto/3041472635.html says it has a nailhead and 3-speed:3gears:
a lot of people think the 300 is a nailhead because the valve covers set at a 90 degree angle so they do appear to look like a nailhead the easiest way to tell is all nailheads have the dist. is in the rear of the engine but it could be a GS model with a 401 nailhead but i didn't see any GS badges jake
I was uncertain as to whether a non-GS car could have a nailhead from the factory (obviously someone could have swapped one in, or removed the GS badges)
Sounds like it's probably going to have too much rust in non re popped sheet metal though. Hole in the floor and I would bet by the description that the quarters are bad. Three speed column? Did they make a three on the tree?
Car was for sale on Milwaukee Craigslist for $1750 OBO. Now in Chicago. Think its a flipper. The car is a Special so no nailhead just a 300.
Dan, You are right. I was looking for the add I saved. I have it somewhere. I thought it was 6 CYL ? It was $1750 OBO.

Brian, I think that ad was deleted. Here's another http://madison.craigslist.org/cto/3035390817.html I was wrong Brian http://milwaukee.craigslist.org/cto/3015377609.html Cripes, its everywhere What are the odds of two cars like that ?
Dan that is the same car no doubt. Take a look at the left quarter panel in both pics have the same quarter size rust spot above thw wheel and the same dent at the rear of the wheel. I bet if you call the original guy the car was already sold! ---------- Post added at 09:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 PM ---------- By the way..........hopefully the guy learns the hard was flipping 64-65 cars around here isn't the way to go. Maybe in California it works but not around here!
