At this time I am firm on the price. I may reduce a bit when in serious negations.
Thanks for your interest.

...First person who sees it will grab it Marty I'm sure! I'm downsizing myself otherwise I'd be in touch!..

Thanks Tim,
I love that picture that you took of us leaving your place. I sure hate to sell it but I have found another project that I really want and I enjoy the restoration more than any thing else.
I hope you can make it to the Reno MCA national show. I know you are not in to showing too much but enter the display only class and just hang out with everyone. I will see if I can post a entry form.
Hope to see you soon.
Marty

Marty;
Your car is in fantastic shape, and almost a one of a kind. All the Gold and Silver MCA awards speek for themselves. If any one is looking for a concours restored car, this is it, you should not have to settle. To me it is a great price, same cars are higher in Canada. I did see the car in Believue Wash. so have had a first hand look. A lot of car nuts I know, are using Cars on line to search for a car. Lot's of money in Alberta for quality cars.
Take Care

I agree...in Victoria, you would not even come close to finding a fastback in nice condition for $35,000. Your car would bring crazy money here. :cool:

Marty! Glad you are able to pick up that next project! ;-D It will be fun. I wish you had waited 6 months to sell her, I would buy her, just not in the right spot right now. Would you take a payment plan?!?! LOL DANG!

I have to admit it was a bit painful seeing our car of all most 20 years drive away with some one else. The gentleman from Colorado who bought it has been dreaming of owning a 68 fastback for 15 years so I know it will be well cared for.
To answer your question it was replaced with a 1968 GT350 Shelby fastback, which eases the pain of the loss considerably! I love to have one to work on.
