Car details:

1973 2.0 5-Speed (Side Shift)
Mileage: Unknown
VIN: 4732921210
Purchased over 10 years ago from hot_shoe914 here on the forum - Signal Orange original color

The engine was rebuilt with some more aggressive parts back in 2009 by Motorsports Unlimited - Simi Valley (Rick). The odometer hasn't worked since I bought it but I'm guessing I've put 20-30k miles on since then.

Most of the interior was junk so I took it out with the plan of buying new interior parts but never got around to it. I do still have the lower knee bumper pad, ash tray and a host of back-up parts like gauges and such.

- The seats need to be replaced or reupholstered.
- The pedal cluster was re-built by Bruce Stone in Riverside.
- The brake master cylinder was upgraded to the 911 cylinder.
- Brand NEW re-built rear brake calipers from PMB.
- Brand NEW brake rotors, bearing, pads, and seals front and back.
- I replaced the 40 IDF carbs with 44's (way better match with the more aggressive cams)
- The paint isn't great and there is rust pockets popping up on the front fenders near the windshield (Both sides).
- 1st and 2nd syncros in the trans are worn.
- The carbs could use adjusting as usual.
- HD Bilstein shocks
- New windshield


Other than that I can't think of anything else. The car runs great and has been my daily driver. Wife complains every winter that the heater doesn't work so I had to go out and get a "Modern" DD. No need for 4 cars so... I have to sell something. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

PM me if you'd like to see additional pics or have any questions.

I thought I'd put this on here before trying eBay or something else.

Is this an "original '73 2.0L" with all the included goodies that came with that year? Sway bars, fog lights and center console w/ guages to mention a few?
