Wow, how is this still for sale? $8k is a steal here. The thing looks mint. 300hp Euro, recovered dash, whole top end done, maintenance is up to date, and the paint is beautiful!

Actually Zoltan, its the 310 Euro LH. Must be early 84 though due to the single distributor.

As well, your air filter is in upside down!

Euro S has the casting numbers visible from the front view on LH injection cars, US and older K jet you have to look from the back, or down lower on the tubes, I think to see the casting numbers.

Thanks!

The AC system was converted and got the new seals on all the fittings. It was vacumed down and charged. The AC worked fine. But, when the top side engine rebuild was done the AC had to be released. When finished I never vacummed the system down and recharged.

Not sure what you mean by the casting marks. I know the casting number on the block is a 84 LH euro.

I am surprised too!. The economy I think is a factor. Next week I am putting it up for sale for 9000.00. It has many of the preferred euro upgrades like the 85 headers, X-pipe and 3" exhaust.

Any full-size interior pics?

Based on the condition of the engine bay, it is very clear this car is owned by an enthusiast.

What's the story on the custom exhaust system?

Boy, thats a beautiful Euro-S, I think I saw this car for sale before, the guy in the ad said he had no garage for it and kept it under a cover. That was a while ago I saw it.
