How did you find that car? Is it in Jersey?

Freddie Two Bs

Any pictures of the car?

Sorry only a contact now. I will have more info about the car next week.

I was asking for pics of the other car. The question for you was "is that car in Jersey? How did you find it?!?"

cobalt

I know a lot of people.

Anthony's real name is Wayne Carini.

My cars are far too nice. That is almost like calling me Bob Ciasulli.

I will get some pics and post them. Need to take my Audi up to him anyway for service work.

HAs the bubble burst ?

I am seeing very reasonable cars these days , is it just me or do others find these expensive ?

an 82SC targa on Pelican for 21K ? to me that is reasonable.
a 80 SC couple for 27 , okay that is getting up there but still .. not out of this world by any means.

Even one with a bad starter that sat for a year at 17K ...

i think these prices are more than reasonable.



Both cars look nice.

The 82 has 300k miles...

GTgears

It's all relative. 2-3 years ago that 82 was $14-15K. So it's gone up in price by a third. That doesn't suggest a popped bubble to me. But it is the new normal. I don't really seeing it go down, but then I've been the outlier since day one saying there's no bubble.

theiceman

oh I agree the new baseline is higher , but I don't think the prices are out of this world.

There is one guy selling a 78SC coupe with a 3.2 in it so I am trying to get a feel on what its worth. if I can get it at a decent deal i'll get it for my son. needs valve guides for sure as I have followed him in the past.

GTgears

Totally agree. People are complaining but the reality is they were unpriced for years. You can't have a $12-15k engine rebuild and $3-5k gearbox rebuild and it still be a $15k car. I know so many people who have spent $20-25K refurbishing a car when you start to dig into paint and interior and other mechanicals as well. The real cost of maintenance and care alone justifies the current prices, new found popularity be damned.

My 74 with 3.2 in it that I bought this summer is costing me high $20s. But I am also getting the car with a fresh paint job. I would say $20-25K for the car you describe.

That is very helpful .. I just sold another car ( my old company car for 16K )so offered him that , he said he is actually going to think about it and let me know ( I think he needs coin fast for something ).

that is Canadian too, in real money that's about 12K .. so if I score it for that its worth it.

I actually don't need one , he called me asking if I want to buy it. I don't have space so would pay to store it for a couple of years than rebuild the engine as I only have one garage.

I think he wants to sell it to me because he can then buy it back later ( so he thinks bawahahaha )
