The interesting thing about this car is that it is a 4 speed. Data differs on this but it is widely published that only 187 were made that way. Hard to tell what interior is like but getting an engine for this should be easy enough. Body parts are on eyear and one year only so the fact that all those parts are there and in good shape is a big plus. Not a fan of the painted rear bumper. I don't think asking price is that high for what you get, of course he will sell for less.

Just another one on my list but will likely never happen.

I'd make it a 455 4 speed just to show a few people those Nader-bumper cars aren't necessarily duds....

I have seen this car when it was mobile. 4 speed is rare. Needed body work last time I saw it.

Maybe I should buy it. Lots of engines to choose from - high comp 400, high comp 389, or low comp 455, What would you put in ahead of the 4 speed?
