My story gets better. I bought the complete exhaust (VGC heat exchangers, and muffler) and the gas tank for another 250.

I bought the gas tank since my car has been sitting for like 12 or 13 years I figure a fresh tank will be a big +

Today, I just bought a running '74 2.0 with D-Jet, Fuchs (including the spare), uncracked dash, nice glass, nice bumper tops, good interior for $750. It's got a good amount of rust in the usual places, but I have a 2.0. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Holy Cow!!! That tops my deal by far! I think you just bought a 3K car for 750.

It looks better in the pictures. It has a big gaping hole in the passenger side long.

Sure hope this doesn't turn into the 'Mine is bigger than yours' thread. Someone is sure to put up (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thisthreadisworthlesswithoutpics.gif)

Next thing you know, Mike Z will get involved and......well, I think you can see where we're going here.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) nope He got the better deal I concede

However, I just went out and tried to buff off 13 years of oxidation off the original paint on my 72 (no rust (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) ) Looks like the OE paint is actually going to buff out and be presentable. Looks good enough that I am not going to paint it b/c pretty good OE is >> than great repaint IMHO.

I am surprised that no one else had come to look at it. It was listed for a pretty low price.

The point of my response was that I also recently bought a 2.0 motor (with a rusty car attached) that could go into my 76hp 1.8. It's all good. The guy I bought it from wasn't going to be restoring this car so at least it won't end up rusting into the ground.
