Marks71 Posted October 2 Author Share Posted October 2 A lot of options, but no gauge package. It says it’s in the FGMCC SS Registry. Bidding ends tomorrow at noon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragCat Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Nice pictures and write up....bummer on the gauge package Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mon-tss Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Hope it does well. Only nit-pick things I see was overflow tank and needs exhaust tips. and original radio reinstalled. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Boyte Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Definitely a bummer on the gauge package for sure, also the thread bearing headliner needs to be replaced. Over all a fairly clean ride but it definitely needs a lot of attention!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 That’s a pretty nice 71 SS. There’s only a few things that need changing to be factory correct (steering wheel, exhaust tips, missing parts in engine bay, etc). It looks like there has some good attention to detail with the areas of the car that have been restored. It needs some rear springs to bring the stance up just a tad which will really make a difference in the overall look. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott S. Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 I'll bet that she's seen a lot of Sunday church parking lots in her time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mon-tss Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Seen it bid to 36,100 reserve not met. Hope they are worth more than that. I wouldn't take that for mine either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 I think this one should be at least $45k, possibly more but would need to see in person. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Peters Posted October 8 Share Posted October 8 Welcome aboard the boards Alain, we hope you like what you see here and decide to become a full fledged dues paying member of the club. We love our neighbors to the north. The forum you are looking at you will find cars that people are members and trying to sell and cars they have come across on-line. That is the case with this one, it more than likely not a members car. member Dragcat finds these cars all over the place. Again, Welcome Aboard!!! rob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen Posted October 8 Share Posted October 8 I’m a bit late to this party and this is a very nice car, but I know of a certain ‘71 Lime Green SS specimen in much better overall shape 😉. And I’m with Aaron on this one… at least 45 stacks is a more realistic number considering overall condition, provenance and docs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
