I also just picked up a 67---$200.00. Lost title, last registered in 1982. DMV fee's for new title and reg. was only about $90.00. The guy I got it from bought some property and found it sitting in one of the out buildings. She's complete, everything bone stock with a frozen 295 under the hood. I have a fair amount of front body to do, otherwise she's pretty straight the rest of the way back. I'm going to be dropping either a small or big block in it with a th400. I feel your pain on the money thing, but in th eend it's all worth it. Just keep looking around at the local junk yars and the internet for those deals.
