Interesting car. '83 Euro or not

Vin says US but side markers and rear fog say Euro. Horn is an "S" pad. No reserve starting at $200. The BBS LM wheels are probably worth about $1500 themselves.

I know. But if you can get the car for a few hundred, tell the guy to just send the wheels and he can relist. Still curious what is going on with the Euro panels and US VIN.

Yea, I think only the chin spoiler and wheels are even close to being any good. The rest of that car (while save-able) is really hurting and will cost $15k to make it look nice again...who knows how much to also make it run right...

unfortunately, given its location, a lot of mechanicals are likely to be too rusty or corroded to effectively remove, or if you can remove them, too bad of condition to re-use....

Looks like a euro to me. Got the correct rear bumper cover for it.
Understatement of the year!
Great track car candidate.
Doug, that one looks to have led a very rough life
Great track car candidate.

I actually purchased the car for the later model G28/11 5 spd and headers in it. My current car has a early G28/05 5 spd that I will be selling as well as anything else needed. I will have 1 complete car to part. My only concern is that the car needs to remain a roller so I can get it out of my garage and on a trailer when I am finished parting and robbing parts. Not sure what all you will need. PM me with details. My 5 spd works well except you need to be stopped in order to downshift to first. All upshifting works as well as all other downshifting. It is also NOT LSD.
