Manfold gaskets? I thoght Chrysler products didn't use any, at
least, the 60's cars don't have them. These years usually have an annoying tick
from a bad heat riser.

exhaust leak is probably the manifold gaskets; about $100 each
side to
do..A/C..if you want it done right probably 900-1100;have no idea
on body
work..point is most buyers would deduct this off asking price so
try
1750-2000 and give him 2300 if you really want it..just be prepared to
put $
into it and figure that into your total outlay.JMHO...good luck! and
if you
get it and it turns out to be a good one call me when you are ready
to
sell..love the 2drs...
