Yeah, I bought my 68 when I was like 26 with 1 young one and another on the

way. I had no business buying it then, and had to sell. Now I am no longer

with the money sucking ball and chain, have come along in my career, and

inherated some $. I want a Stingray again.

Major things to look at for that year :



1. Rusted frame just in front of the rear wheels.



2. Windshield pillar rusting ..on the top and both sides.



3. Check all fenders inside on the top, for being in a wreck.

Same comment as above

Well the rust that is also common on the bottom is 10 times

harder to deal with../



>3. Check all fenders inside on the top, for being in a wreck.

You lost me on this one...I have no doubt you have your

reasons what I honestly would like to know is why do you specifically

say inside on top... Inside I can understand (anywhere)...



Just curious?
