    Be ready to pay the price. I wanted one like that also but was forced to do it on the installment plan. Buy a solid restoreable car and finish it myself one piece at a time.

    And just how much would you like to spend? I might have what you're looking for, but it is probably too far away for you to look at...

    Thinking about letting my avatar go.......won some trophys, rust free, 2k miles on drivetrain, around 75k miles original, have build sheet.
    Factory PS/PB/Tilt, PT, AC, clock, speed alert, Sonomatic Stereo, aftermarket rear air ride & CC & Dual MC, Red Top Optima ...... starter barely turns over one time to start.
    Only one I ever saw with a rear center armrest, reportedly a dealer installed item.
    whats it worth?

    Id say 35-40K. Building my own I know first hand what it cost.

    Thank you to both for input. Maybe these details will help.....
    Paint is basecoat/clearcoat about 10 yrs old. Its a strong "B" in the sunshine
    Complete brake system rebuild. (lines Dual Resv MC, booster, wheel cylinders, shoes, adjusters, springs, the works) I like to stop.
    SS fuel lines front to back. Tank refreshed, replaced sending unit, all new hoses. I hate leaks.
    Engine rebuilt top to bottom by Speed Performance Research, line bored mains, cylinders bored 0.030" over, new pistons, 425 cam, HD dual valve springs, true duals all the way out back, SS tips, HD water pump & brass tanks AC radiator. Spanked a modified '66 Mustang FB on the highway once, they were pestering us.
    Correct Bonneville Grey "X Stamped" road wheels with NORS Wildcat centers.
    Interior 6-Way Power bench seats reupholstered 2yrs ago with OEM material, brushed silver inserts on the factory "Custom" interior package. OEM Seatbelts for 6. ALL weatherstrips/fuzzies replaced while retaining SS Fuzzy backers. (that was a tedious endeavor!)
    New carpet, insulation, Dynamat, 5yrs ago. Floor front to rear bumper was cleaned/sealed top & bottom with POR15. Also installed the OEM PW wiring at the time, have the whole PW package just not installed yet.

    It goes on and on..........!

    I let that blue one go way too cheap. :(

    I just hope the new owner is happy with it. He took a chance on buying a car that was 1000 miles away and in a different country and it paid off for him.

    And in case anyone is interested, the Red one in the avatar is currently for sale at even a cheaper price. It's exactly 1.5 inches longer than the Wildcat.
