Default 1985 Euro for parts..maybe fix

When they get this cheap, it could be a good source to build up a car. The heads, cams and headlights are almost as valuable as the car cost.

Price is pretty low, I would like it better if the hood was up and we could see the motor is actually a Euro. Rear bumper has the Euro light, but front fenders are USA.

Needs a fuel pump, starts with starting fluid, wow RED FLAG, could be a deep hole or just a fuse, but its a sure sign the owner knows nothing, may have tried all sorts of bad things, and it likely has not started using the factory fuel injection in a long time.

I'd offer less in cash, but it would be strictly parts. I just don't care for the Euro with an AT.

The front fenders could have been replaced because it got in a wreck? The headlights seat funny.

Interesting as it does NOT have the rear 1/4 markers. Odd that that would be done to a USA model ! and it is a Euro rear cover but as noted USA front fenders. Does have H-4 Euro headlights. So has several Euro features. Just might be a Euro S engine but would need to see it

Its a common mistake. I've run across several sellers that despite obvious US cars insist its a Euro made in Stuttgart etc.
