They are just popping up everywhere!
One in Lynchburg - a steel wheel car to boot - http://lynchburg.craigslist.org/cto/1970348848.html
And one in Charlottesville - http://charlottesville.craigslist.org/pts/2027025162.html.
$2500 for 2 MGCs. And you could pick them up in the same day on the same trailer!

That Lynchburg MGC shows why one should not change the colour of the dash and console.
But for $1k....someone needs to grab it.
And an 1800 swap?
WTF?!?!

I did email with the Lynchburg seller (Jason) when he first listed it in september. He stated that there was the "normal" rust pattern and the C engine was not siezed. Here was another picture he sent.

Oh...and the dash looks like it was covered in vinyl. Explains the unusual color.

Mark, FYI the one listed on Charlottesville Craigslist is actually located in Front Royal which is about 50 miles northwest of C'ville, off of I-81.

Thanks for the replies, guys.
I did contact the Lynchburg owner; didn't learn anything more than what's in the ad.
If anyone gets the Chassis Numbers to these cars, please pass them along to me.

Have ben emailing Jason, seems to be a fair amount of rust. Funny how two people can talk about the same car and not see the same things. Will let you know what I find out in the next few days. Too far to go see, so its a one trip with a trailer or a no go.
Normal rust pattern is "bottom to top".
