me too! I think camaro/nova rear is a bolt in? suspension and drivetrain should be relatively easy to do with all the different aftermarket stuff available. here is a 150 pic:
with a 5 hour drive at stake I wouldnt go more than $100 bucks on it, and get the paperwork. Remember, its already damaged from going on its top, and its going to get more damage coming back to its right side up state. Without seeing any more than the 2 grainy pics it doesn't have much that I'd want to salvage, but maybe enough parts to sell off and make a bit of money to save for a better car
It is a 2 door hardtop belair, missing side pieces according to seller. I thinking bout it. Im a glutton for punishment.
Contact Classic Chevy international in Fla. They can almost sell you a complete 57 over the counter. My friend and I formed the Mid Fla Classic Chevy Club in Kissasimee Fla. We used to cut up 4 doors for parts. We never butchered the body but found a ton of parts to bolt on. IE: Power rack and pinion out of a Citation. A 504 power steering box out of a Malibu, Tilt wheel out of a caddy. Ford power window motors, Mid 60's Caddy seats. Nova Power brake system, Disc brakes off a Nova with the use of an early 70's spindle. You will need a tapered spacer for that swap. Great cars, fun to build.
400 isnt bad.Take some more detailed pics and post them so we can give you an accurate rating on this car.Dont let a dented roof scare you.You should see some of the 55-57's Ive dragged out of the bushes! I saved a 55 2 door sedan from the local wrecking yard about 5 years ago,you wouldnt recognize it now.That 57 has more than what the 55 had when I got it.You dont need to get parts all the way from Florida either.Danchuk supplies them and they are here in California.
The next question for everyone is once I flip it over, what suggestions/ ideas do you have for getting it onto a trailer if I cannot get anything as far as a rear axle or front end?
what the hell is it upside down for. Id say the roof is shot and one side of the car has to be pretty dented up bad when it got rolled over in the first place. Id keep looking for one thats at least sitting up right and is a roller (not rolled). And you might do more damage to it rolling it back over.
