Well, after 11 great years of ownership, it is time to sell my toy. A little history on the car...I bought the car in 2001 in North Carolina and the previous owner had owned it while living in South Carolina. I can tell from the inspection sticker that it was at least in the south from 1996 on. I began restoring the car in 2002 and pretty much everything on the car needed replacing...seals, shocks, tires, brakes, you name it. I also had the car professionally painted (taken to bare metal, etc) and had the interior completely restored (even a brand new dash). For the engine, the previous owner told me it only had 30,000 miles on a rebuild...since then I have put about 15,000 miles on the engine. I replaced the carbs that he had on it with Weber 40IDFs and replaced the Bosch 050 with a Mallory Unilite. In total, I've spent more than $10,000 on the restoration and have all the receipts to prove it...and the car cost me $3,500 when I bought it....so whoever buys it will get a pretty sweet deal. I live in the Cincinnati/Dayton, Ohio area if anyone wants to see it in person. Here's hoping it finds a good home.
ps. I will add pics as I take them over the next week. If there are any pics that anyone would like to see please don't hesitate to ask. |
