I know this should be in classifieds, but here goes. If anybody wants a really straight 74 914/4 (most probably an LE), you can have it today for $6k. No excuses car, it's just too stock for my taste. I'll go to DMV tomorrow, so once I pay the fees, will probably do repaint to make it a bumblebee.

I'll offer 4.5K so your reputation of losing money is not tarnished and Los Panchos will paint it Corvette Millenium Yellow so it will actually be fast instead of that loser paint job you propose.
