 Experts, pick this car apart from me..., Aside from carbs does it appear all original? |

QUOTE(deputydog95 @ Aug 9 2014, 02:20 PM)  I noticed a few things right off the bat besides the missing fuel injection. An aftermarket Ansa exhaust, aftermarket rear shocks do not appear to be Konis or Bilstiens (options). A lot of loose wiring in the engine bay and under car which is not original. The fuel pump is not original nor in the original location (but original wouldn't work with the carbs). The driver front headlight bucket is not aligned properly-notice the pinched seam which suggests some work done to that area-maybe an accident repair? |

Rear valence has been replaced. Matched cut out for pipes. Looks good, but not stock. Could be converted back if desired.

It's really nice , regardless of the carbs. The loose wiring is do to the lack of injection. Some dings in both valances but the car is in great condition.
Priced too high (for now), but a car I wouldn't fault heavily. All the wrong things (ANSA is OK) can be undone. Hope he hets his price. |

Good looking car & would not take much to get it back to OEM. A closer, personal inspection seems warranted.
