Vehicle Description
FOR SALE AT 500 CLASSIC AUTO - SALE PENDING TRUE 65 GTO 389 TRI
POWER 4 SPEED THAT HAD BEEN SITTING SINCE 1979. THE CAR DOES NOT
RUN. IT IS NUMBER MATCHING, SEE PHOTOS, IT HAS SOME RUST THAT HAS
REALLY RUSTED WEIRDLY. IF YOU START LOOKING AT THE BODY IT DOESNT
SEEM BAD UNTIL YOU GET TO THE BACK AND THE ITS LIKE, OH MY GOD, THE
TRUNK LID, TRUNK GUTTER AND TAIL LIGHT PANEL HAS JUST RUSTED OF THE
CAR. THE TRUNK FLOOR IS NOT AS BAD AS THE TRUNKLID. THEN. YOU WOULD
THINK THE BACK WINDOW CHANEL WILL BE GONE. BUT IT ONLY HAS 1 PIN
HOLE IN LEFT CORNER. I FIND THAT TO BE CRAZY. THE FRAME IS SOLID.
YOU DONT THINK IT WOULD BE BUT I HAD IT ON MY LIFT AND ITS ETCHED
WITH PITS BUT SOILD. I WILL GO INTO THE REST OF BODY BELOW. THE CAR
IS VERY MUCH WORTHY TO FIX UP BEING A RARE FACTORY BLACK CAR WITH
GOLD INTERIOR, POWER STEERING, MANUAL GAUGE SET WITH TAC AND REAR
SPEAKER WITH VERBERATOR. PART OF THE STORY IS THAT IT WAS BOUGHT
NEW AT WATSON PONTIAC IN DELPHI, IN. CAR STILL HAS DEALER STICKER
ON TRUNK. IT WAS BOUGHT BY A MR HUFFY FROM FLORA, IN ABOUT 2010.
SOMEBODY STOLE THE TRI POWER AND HE BOUGHT THE SET SEEN IN PHOTOS
ON EBAY IN 2011 REBUILT AND READY TO GO. MAY NOT BE NOW BUT COULD
BE FINE. NEVER RAN. I JUST HAVE IT SETTING ON ENGINE AND KEEP IT
COVERED. ENGINE HAS BEEN STUCK FOR A WHILE. SO, THIS GUY DIED AND
LEFT IT TO HIS STEP SON IN 2020. WE BOUGHT IT. TRIED TO GET ENGINE
LOOSE BUT WILL NEED TAKEN APART. PLUGS WERE ON CARDBOARD IN CAR
WHEN WE GOT IT. NOTE: I HAVE POSTED 135 PHOTOS AT
www.500classicauto.com AND THE LAST 1 IS THE BODY TAG. SELLING CAR
AS IS WITH NO WARRANTY. HAVE CLEAN INDIANA TITLE WITH NO MILES
LISTED. RUST - I THINK IT ONLY NEEDS A FLOOR PAN FROM TUNNEL TO
REAR SEAT, TRUNK FLOOR, LEFT FENDER BUT THAT COULD BE PATCHED, A
LEFT REAR QUARTER PATCH, AND DROP DOWN, TRUNK LID, TAIL PANEL, THEY
SELL TRUNK GUTTER PIECES TO WELD TO QUARTERS, BUY THE REAR WINDOW
CHANEL TO TRINK CHANEL PIECE AND USE AS NEEDED. THE INNER ROCKERS
AT FRONT NEED PATCHED ABOUT 4 INCH AREA. PATCH BOTH WHEEL HOUSES
WITH 3 TO 4 INCH PIECE, AND DIP OR BLAST FRAME. THERE MAY BE SMALL
HOLE ONCE PREPED AT BOUGHT FRONT OF BOTH WHEEL WELLS. FOR SOME
REASON THE DASH RUSTED AT BOTTOM BUT NOT TOP. 3 HOLE COULD BE
PATCHED. THEY DONT MAKE NEW BUT THEY CAN BE FOUND USED. I AM SURE
IT WONT HAVE A HOLE. BODY - DOORS WORK GOOD, GLASS IS ALL GOOD BUT
WINDSHIELD HAS A WHITE SPOT IN 2 CORNERS. LEFT DOOR HAS A DENT ON
BODY LINE AT BACK. THE LEFT QUARTER HAS SIDE SWIPE DENT AT BACK BUT
QUARTER EXTENSION NOT DAMAGED. RIGHT SIDE LOOKS EXCELLENT. GRILLES
