Many things in those pictures.... Would love to see complete photos of the car including all of the know problem areas and enough to prove it is an original Six. I get the whole European model thing, but still, let's see a VIN, COA, etc. Car does look pretty straight though.

Are those extra set of giant, in-board lights for better visibility when the snowplow is attached? Very, very clever ...

QUOTE(rhodyguy @ Mar 25 2018, 03:58 PM)  There has to be a catch. Serious question: What makes you think there has to be a catch? As is, this car is a little rough and won't win any concours/originality awards and there are some "mods" that don't fit my personal tastes, but the basics appear to be there: ignition switch in correct location, tach looks correct for model, battery tray doesn't look too bad from what can be seen and has enough "patina" that it might be original. Hence, hell hole is presumably solid. Couldn't read the digits on the speedo, so perhaps US MPH replacement on a European delivery car. Contact number appears to be private party. No US side markers. Price perhaps optimistic, but not too crazy for a starting point these days. You think priced too low? Curious what your suspicion is because I'd genuinely like to know what I'm missing.

I think I know this car.... met the seller a couple of years ago at my house. he has owned this car for a LONG time. Added his own touches...... well before the values started to sky rocket.
Car ran well, but didn't seem like much more grunt than my 2.0 4-cylinder Cool guy.... older gentleman. tried to get him to join up on World, but i recall hhe doesn't use email A bit surprised that he is selling. He loved that car |

I don't know anything about this car, but it seems to be in the right ball park to start a conversation.

Seems like a bargain at today's price point...
