I got this car about 18 months ago, and just haven't been able to do much with it. You can see the link in my sig to the progress thread. Not too much progress has been made, unfortunately.

As it stands now, I haven't been able to start the motor. It did turn last I tried it, but I think there is another issue, maybe with the starter or ?? I was able to spin the starter yesterday by cross the posts, and the solenoid engaged, but I couldn't get it to do both and spin the motor.

The car has rivieras on it that will need to be take off when you come pick it up. They are not mine and need to be returned to their owner.

Here's the rundown of the good stuff:

2.7/6 with CIS in place.
6er headers.
6 engine mount
6 throttle linkage.

Body is decent, but it's a 76. For those in California, that's an issue. Has some rust around the hell hole. I have not probed how deeply it goes. The battery tray has been replaced with a welded in tray.

It has fiberglass gt flares on the rear only.

Sideshift trans and there is something up with it. Seems like one of the in-bound CV joints is broken.

Interior is there, but not great. Seats recovers in velour seating surface, but some tears in the vinyl bolsters.

Has a "custom" center console with 911 gauges. Has a 914 combo Gas/Temp gauge too.

I don't really want to sell it, but I need the cash for other stuff/projects that I am working on.

$2500.

PM me with any questions.

Hey Joe, how much work to get it running enough for Rand to drive it home? Maybe there is a (IMG:style_emoticons/default/jsharp.gif) in it.

Dunno for sure Joe.

There is something going on with the starter/electrics.

There is one broken axle for sure.

There might be something else with the trans too, that's why he parked it years ago.

The brakes would need to be gone through and checked. Rotors need to be turned and MC checked to make sure it will work.

I replaced the gas tank with a non-rusty one and R&Red the fuel delivery system into the injection. Slits hooked me up with a fuel dizzy that didn't stick.

Rims and Tires are Euro911s, so he'd need those back too.

And it would need a battery.

It would take a lot of work to make it drivable. It's been sitting a long time.

.ps Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I have a hood and engine lid for it. I've just been keeping everything under a car cover.

Also, I might be interested in a type4 motor in partial trade. I screwed up my 1911, so I am open to alternatives. I'd want something with a carb cam, as I prefer to run carbs. Just throwing that out there.

Thanks for the thoughts Joe. Whether it comes from this or not, I'm looking forward to one of your narpBQs one day! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I would love it if I could find a six expert to get this thing running ahead of time. Then I could round up some wheels/tires, an axle, battery, etc., and fly out to finish getting it drivable.

I wish I knew the engine condition. That's why this is priced so low.

Hey Joe, whatcha know?

This sounds like a great deal, I'm sure someone will snap it up soon (figure motor & parts alone...).

Now for the highjack, what happened to the 1911?

Thanks Bill.

I put in a step-down stud for one of the exhaust studs at an odd angle. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Minimally, I need to drop the motor and send the heads out to be fixed.

I'll be putting this up on CL this weekend. I'd rather make a deal with someone here, but I need to move it soon.

Or nearest offer. I'd like to get this thing out of here.

If no one steps up, I will part it.

If you part, I would be interested in the CIS complete. Or if someone else buys it, and wants to sell me the CIS....

Thanks Kevin.

I really want to move the whole car if I can. Parting it may become inevitable. =(
