Sounds crazy, but I am realistic to my current economic issues (college tuition, business, and home wise)There are a few 427SC cars in the low 30's I'm considering, even one Unique FIA for 22K in NJ (now on craigslist), but needs a complete teardown and rebuild which I am unwilling to do on this car (I knew the last owner, this car was not taken care of from day one but is a good deal for someone who wants a project like that)......
