Looks interesting but not much info. Canary Yellow might have been the original color......$58.5K

Looks like a nice Six. I hope they follow-up with the much needed pictures of the hidden problem areas. Man, those tires are tall.

Car has a lot of potential,no big rust bubbles showing up,funny it had to be that seller,he is a kiwi like me and started from small beginings in the USA after moving there, EC has gone a long way since then,we used to surf together in New Zealand and race around in hotted Kombi's.....priceless.
Nick Clemence was always a clever person when I knew him,we always talked about how his dreams were for the clouds but he did it.
I know he has a good rep for selling honest cars and the price is certainly reflects that....cause that's where they are now.

yea those tyres.....HUGE.

The bolt on stuff that is wrong is only a couple thousand bucks But considering the car is the wrong color the price becomes a serious issue. The cost to strip the car of all bolt on parts, clean, sand and refinish (which is still a shortcut) would surely drive the price well over value.

How would that process be a shortcut? What's a better alternative?

Sorry Steve I meant to say was sand the repaint without removing it and all the work done under it. The car looks straight but if you start removing paint you can watch the price escalate rapidly.

Both need a full strip and re spray.
Pretty expensive price of admission.
