The condition is very appealing, but I'm going way old school next....

And while it may be period correct, not in love with the bonnet antics (i know, bubble is there to clear intake...then fix the intake!)

It has been on the Seattle Craigslist and on eBay before. Didn't make reserve about two weeks ago. I think he was asking over $20k on Craigslist if I remember correctly. The car just further North posted here is a much, much better deal.

I dunno, I think if the car is as represented, mid $20Ks is fair.

I think this car would be far superior. More expensive, but more modern and there is no issues of dry rot or aging. People forget how expensive it can be to get a car that has sat for a long time road worthy. This is an extreme example, but I know of a gentlman who spent $50k getting an F-40 (he paid $325k for it at the time) with 120 miles on it road worthy after it had basically sat for 15 years.

The car up in Lake Stevens is a stunner in the flesh. You could eat off any surface. I was afraid to sit in it.

Love the yellow/black..(go figure)..but the intake buldge is just wrong.

hmm..with only that many miles..i wonder if it's "sorted out" yet..with about 6k on mine..the more serious problems have just started to pop up.
