Facebook ad
I have listed my car for sale on Facebook. The price may be a bit optimistic, but I think its a good start since prices for these are all over the place at the moment. Have tried to be as open and honest in the ad as I can... $20,000 OBO Constructive feedback is welcome as are any questions. Thanks (more pictures, including the longs, engine compartment, trunk, and frunk with the ad) I've owned this car for eight years, only driven (rarely) on the weekends. Always garage kept. Never driven in the rain and only washed 1-2 times per year. The previous owner built this up for Autocross and is perfect for back road cruising. There is little to no rust on the car. The previous owner fixed the hell-hole under the battery with new panels as well as reinforced the longs (see picture with rocker panel removed). I had a pre-purchase inspection by a local aircooled specialist and he confirmed: "Not the prettiest welds, but they're solid. " Video: https://youtu.be/8n1UZ9Zm3fw The good: -Engine rebuilt in 2015 with less than 5000 miles on it. Have most of the receipts. Would drive it anywhere. Dual carburetored. Always runs cool for both oil and cylinder head temperature, even in summer. - Shifts great - Clutch and rear main seal replaced last year. - Bilstein shocks. - Brad Meyer longitudinal reinforcement - Stainless steel braided brake lines - Rear sway bar - Original Fuch 2.0 wheels, with spare, and appearance package. - Modern Pioneer stereo and speakers - Custom mirrors - Optima sealed battery - Have extra transmission and lots of spare parts. The not so good: -The paint is in decent shape, but could use some touching up here and there -The rear bumper top could stand to be replaced. -I found one small area of rust at the trunk lid the size of a fingernail. - Odometer does not work, but all other gauges do. -Driver seat has an area... -Rear trim could be secured better. - Dash has a crack. |

I live near Middlesboro KY. Not sure where Crestwood is but we may not be too far from each other. |

Hello; I found where Crestwood KY is. Near Louisville. That is a long drive. I have been thru the area many times in the past but not for many years.

I see you have no heating/ventilation controls on the dash. Did you do something else or just remove them entirely? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

There is no heat. So easy to adjust the valves now! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
