The ad says, "heres the pics".... yet, where are the pics??
It probably is a scam, but anyone looking for a '78 5 spd, its worth verifying, just be cautious.

Rixter, on a different note, why are our intakes different? You've got rings around the flappy area where I don't. I'm an early '87. did they revise the design?

It's also good that he mentioned that it was a SOHC, so that we know how unique this particular engine is.
I don't understand how these scammers work. Why wouldn't they list a newer, more desirable car at a good price - or is that too transparent?
(I guess until I realized that the ad was cross posted in at least one other market hundreds of miles away, I didn't suspect a scam)
By the way, it's been flagged in Cleveland CL
