new from St. Louis. MO. 1965 SPL310

Post by RAREBMX »

Not any good pictures yet but debating to Store for a few years, sell as parts or whole. Car is all there but rough condition but not rusty. I can't take on a 4th restoration right now. Saved from barn locally.
The car is ALL there except for 1 driver's side headlight ring & 1 hubcap. Windshield is uncracked & inside the car. It is a BIG project but bones are good & no rust in floors or rockers that I've seen so far.

I'd say store it, find the missing parts, and fix it up.

Almost out of space & 3 other restorations going on. From a '46 Studebaker truck to an 89 IROC-Z + 1 year old....
I looked up the registry & shows only 74 '65s in the World. Finding parts I assume is TOUGH.

Most of the parts are the same as either the 63-64 1500 or the 65-67 1600. The few unique 65 1500 parts can be hard to find - but they are out there.
You should verify that it is really a 65 and not a 64 sold in 65.

Yes,.I saw that one last night whole going through the site. That is an anomaly to find so cheap. Obviously someone parted that one out.

Referring to the one on CL... I see red shocks... Koni? Somebody's probably pissed at me right now if that's the case...

I'm sure that one is gone or a line of people to acquire it. $50 is a giveaway price
