    I think I'd take that '68 MGB before I took a Chevette. It is a fine specimen though, I'll say that.

    They made those at the GM plant near where I grew up (NE Ohio). Every GM worker and their dog drove one. (~$3K brand new) A few winters with salted roads and those cars were toast. They were turds then and even a bigger turd now.

    If it were the model with the 454cid V8, I would be all over this like a duck on a June bug.
    On the track, I am fearless.
    If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

    Where else are you going to get a 76 Vette with 15K mi. for 9K?

    I would like to know the story behind it. Did somebody park it thinking it was going to be worth a lot in 30 years? Or did it belong an old lady that never drove it because she could not see but would not sell it because she needed a car?

    Nope! They couldn't get it to start for 30 years!
