I like the basic "bones' of the car. But I can find glaring flaws that would knock that price down about 30K. I do like the wheels, I have a set on my 924S, which is where those ^^ wheels should be.

I love the MY cars so I am biased, but there are two sellers on Ebay that are tooting the crack pipe. Check out the silver 77s for mid $60k. The ice green example is not worth more than 9k tops. The silver car is worse it hasn't been driven much atall, and that is not a good thing for any 2.7.

I like the motor also. Carbs and twin ignition would lend itself well to 2.8 or 2.9 slugs and jugs. Did he list if the P/C were replaced? If not, the original 2.7 pistons do not play well with carbs, at 18K I would hope they were replaced with the proper parts. If so, this car may be difficult to operate where emissions testing is mandatory, further limiting it's market.

That's more than a brand new tractor.

I like tractors. Probably ride one this afternoon if the weather holds. An old David Brown to touch up the driveway. Finish off this evening with a laps on the John Deere mower and a Stella.

Perhaps the right person will spend as much as $10,500 for it, but they're going to have a long wait. The color is a great one from 76-77--Ice Green Metallic.

Not sure where some of you are seeing cars like this for $8k-$11k, but fill me in. I agree that it is overpriced, but I dont think you can find a car like that for $8k-$11k. If so, let me know. I am looking for a winter beater for my Ohio house.
