I hate to do it, but with my gas bill for commuting nearing $650 a month and a five hundred a month increase in homeowner insurance here in FL, I can't justify dropping the money in this build. 

The actual for sale ad, and pics can be seen:

I AM WILLING TO TRADE FOR:
Scion XB
Subaru BRZ
Scion FRS

1981 Chrysler Imperial 318/auto trans. Car runs and drives like a dream. It is driven weekly. Does not use oil. Has the factory sunroof that does not leak. Electric seats from a VW. Will come with a Firm Feel set of torsion bars new in the box. ($1200 value) New tires and brakes. Has the Imperial crystal center caps that are extremely rare. Odometer reportedly at 68,000. I pulled the valve covers to replace the gaskets and it appears to be of that mileage. Makes 55psi oil pressure at cruise. Ignition system converted to a GM module with MSD coil. This car is driven weekly. 

I bought this car to build a Buddy Arrington stock car replica, but I just can't bring myself to cut it up! 

Things to be fixed:
Sunroof motor is inop.
Digital dash displays random numbers for the speedometer. (has a GPS speedo on the dash)
AC inop
Wipers inop
Needs paint. The paint is new, but it is a $99 special at best. 
Wiring needs to be gone through. It is a 40 year old car. 

$6,000 OBO. For a purchase at asking or over, I will deliver with 500 miles of Daytona.

Such a cool car!  

I know you didn't ask, but...  If the commute is killing you, buy a Gen2 Prius that needs some slight repair, cheap, and keep the Imperial too.

For $200-$500 in repairs this $2k Prius is probably a runner.
