Good deal?

17k is way to much for the car in that condition. The last thing that should be put in is the windshield and back window. Car is much easier to work on with them out, plus if the headliner is not in it it should be done first. What you have is a guy trying to get his money back out of the car. I hope I don't get flamed for this, but 68 is one of the least popular years for the Chevelle because most people like the 69 because it had no wing windows.

Sounds like he did a lot of work to the motor, what about transmission?
Is it a 12 bolt or 10 bolt?
Do the gauges all work or have they been restored?
New or old wiring harnesses in the car? There are a lot of things may or may not had attention too.
Does he have any pictures on how the body looked before paint?
138 vin or 136? (138 is a true SS)
What brand of interior did he buy for the car?
Did he put new suspension under it or detail the frame out?
Is it a Macco Paint job?

Sorry I could go on, I'm not trying to burst your dream. I agree with Flash for that price I have seen some nice 68's out there.

I purchased my car in boxes and it took a lot of time and money to finish my car. Been there and done that.

I did forget to say welcome to the site.
