Hi. Sorry for the delay. I don't log in every day.
When I bought it I was told I was #3 or 4.
Valves adjusted, short throw shifter and linkage installed, AC converted to 134a and new fan motor and dryer. There are some other odds and ends in the last year. new fuel pump, regulator and regulator relay not because they were bad, but as a preventative measure. Much of the smaller stuff like that has been replaced just because of age and to prevent failure.

PS - this is the driest car you will ever see, speaking beneath it. No seepage, no leaks of any sort.

I think you're pricing it to low... I would stick it on BAT, unless you'd prefer to sell it to a forum member.

Absent some weird backwards psychology, I don't think anyone's ever not sold something by pricing it lower than market.

With absolutely zero offense to the OP, I think the ad was misleading and confusing. Packaging is everything. A very well constructed and hyper-detailed description appeals to those with serious interest.

Your BAT suggestion is good, but it would require the normal level of detail and dozens of photos that usually accompany a BAT ad. I also think the market has softened a bit in the past few months.

All good points! The market seems softer... The advert could be more clear.
Hidden agenda exposed, I have a '84 Carrera and I wanna keep the values up

No need to worry about that. Whatever the market fluctuations are, there are fewer of our cars on the road and the market by the day. Good air-cooled examples will only go up in value. Especially the 84-89 3.2s and 3.3 turbos (which are already ludicrously expensive). The current lull is probably just an adjustment.

I bought my '84 last month after about a year of research. Was initially trending toward an SC, but decided to hold out for the improved fuel management and engine reliability of the 3.2. I definitely spent $6-7k more, but it's worth it IMO. I think the car will appreciate 5-10% a year; more with high-quality restoration.
