    It's an awesome car, and rare with the 454. But, the almost no rust thing is a joke. The seller maybe can't see it as the bondo is covering it up? The spare tire area is odd looking and appears patched, the rear bumper is rusting through, and the fenders, dog legs, rockers are bubbling like crazy. It's been painted on the bottom end. Just in time before it 2 tones to blue over brown. What's with the 80's impala hubcap?

    All this ad needs is a cowgirl wearing a hat and it's a 14k wagon :)

    I looked at this car about 7 years ago. It was junk then and isn't any better now. Missing trim on the tailgate, interior is ragged out, it's not even a $3,500 wagon

    That Driveway looks VERY FAMILIAR ! Didn't we discuss this car 6 or 7 months ago ?
    I swear this car looks like the same one in the driveway in that thread........???????
    If it's the same one, its' had a lot of rust repair.......

    I'd give it 4-5k, just because of it's rarity as a 454. It is definitely a 20 footer.

    I'm not sure I would even run that in a derby!

    Just a little TLC and it will be show condition. His definition of a little is way different than mine!

    BIN price is admittedly way off, but this '76 CE is far from strictly being derby fodder.
