Another classic eBay ad, At least it doesn't say "ran when parked"! |

But of course there's the famous "some rust in sheet metal" line. What are the odds that's all their is?
Also, no VIN and Green 2.0 - but photos of an orange 1.7? https://www.ebay.com/itm/353968097532?hash=...AsAAOSw7GZiNncP |

Up here in the Northeast rust belt, I have never seen a deck lid rust away that much.

Reminds me of the days when 356s were going up in value and we'd see "barn find" rust piles for sale at silly prices.
"In" before the first "I have the VIN plates and the title" ads. |

Doubtful of it being a 1974, more likely a 73, with a 1974 production date. Ergo the 1.7 tailbadge and the early steel wheels.

Doubtful of it being a 1974, more likely a 73, with a 1974 production date. Ergo the 1.7 tailbadge and the early steel wheels. They wouldn't have made a 473 car in 1974. They made 474 and 475 cars in 1974. More likely a typo that has propagated than a misread build date sticker. --DD |
