Which luxo barge?

[Blue Oval Mopar Man]

Funny this thread popping up now !

Last week I bought a P6 for $1500 for the 351 and disc brake 9in . Little bit of rust around the boot seal area, and the gutters, and the left hand a piller was just about rusted right thru about half way up ! Looks exactly like the gold on that has the ebay link ! same color , roof , everything !

Its been in my workshop for about an hour , and an old bloke going past sees it and comes to see what Im doing with it ! I tell him im wrecking it and he offers me $3000 for it ! no I want the diff and motor , so he offers $3500. after I say no again, he says , if I fix the rust and repaint it with out the factory leather/vinyl type roof, just paint it , Would I take $7000 ? I think about it a second and say $9000, half thinking he is full of the proverbial, he says $8000 and sold ! Still thinking this is rubbish , he is just a tyre kicker , he goes away and comes back 45 mins later with $3000 deposit ! :hihi:

So I have been fixing it up for the past week and have just laid on the last coat of 2 pac clear about 30 mins ago ! will be gone in a couple more days , and I get the rest of the cash ! Even though its been a long hard week finding parts and getting it done, its a good little earner ! He choose to do the paint in a ford 1977, Gold rush color , instead of the original brown/gold color ! I will see if I can get a few pics !
