I think the body is in worse condition than mine, aside from rust. Salvage title? Intake manifold leaks? Trans pops out of reverse? Despite his "I am a mechanic" ad approach, the car sounds pretty rough, and I don't see how it is a distinct upgrade from mine. It's too expensive and isn't clean enough to bother with on top of it. I mean is it $3500 because he is emotionally attached to it? Then why sell it?

The run-on sentence nearly gave me a stroke. Especially the part about "living room suit trailer."
Re: Caprice engine swap?
Upon further review, I think the seller is willing to trade this living room on wheels for a living room suite.

Big dent in the front fender but not bad.

The good thing is the car appears to be stock and complete.

It isn't completely plug and play to use an LT1 trans on an LS engine.
