"HAVE FELL ON SOME HARD TIMES AND NEED IT GONE".
That's music to a buyers ears. With cash in hand, you can get a good deal.
Those words are the last thing a seller should ever say.

750 is the CFM of the carb, not specific to a brand. It could be a Holley, Quadrajet, or an Edelbrock.

Depends on how often you strap on your lead lined right shoe.
On the highway, probably in the mid teens, maybe 18 in a tail-wind.
It's not gonna be as good as your car was. But people generally don't buy these old cars for economy reasons.

Sounds like what happened to me when Sarah was wrecked. I dropped Gecko insurance for Progressive and now I have more coverage for less money.


I would bet if you walked up to the guy with 12 Benjamins in your hand me may just go inside and find the title. Missing the pass front seat sux.
