350 or 305? If it's a 350 I think it's a good deal. If it is a 305 it's probably peanut cammed. I would pay about 500 less for it.

How bad is the paint?

350, it appears to have been repainted. the repaint is so bad that it is peeling, not the original paint job. it doesnt need painted to look good, it looks great, but it needs painted to appear awesome looking to other fbody fans.

If it's a real notchback buy it, factory notchbacks are pretty rare to find.

Yea if its a 350 and the body and everything is great than yea i would probably get on that pretty quick. If its a real notch back than hells deffinately get on that, those are pretty hard to come by
