$29,900.
About $20k too much.

OMG! How does anyone let their car get into that condition? They didn't even get the year correct!
Someone obviously adheres to the school of thought that the patina adds character and is half the value of a work of art.
Me on the other hand, I've always wondered what a Pantera would look like with a white-wall tire on just the drivers' side, and now I know.
On a more serious note, the diameter of the WW tire looks quite a bit bigger than the one opposite it, so if they drove it like that for any distance that poor neglected ZF may have experienced some internal trauma.
Caveat Emptor!
But I'd still love to see what someone with the right resources could do with the car (but no way they should shell out anywhere near $29k as an admission price for this project)

Looks like it was ridden hard and put away wet. At least it's got rust in all the right places. 
Queens NY is a rough place for a Sports Car ... the roads are horrible ... this car looks like they pulled out of one of those NYC pot holes ...

Where can I get me a set of them there white walls?
Yea, I say you'd be safe at 5K but no more. It is truly amazing the crap Gullwing Motors digs up. Do they have their own special scrap heap that they pull these hulks out of?

Just unreal. Like a science experiment gone wrong. Appears to be a Florida tag (or is that some elder NY plate?) and if so, must've been dunked off a long FL pier, then dropped off in NY for several harsh winters.
very saddening

Makes mine look good - I'm going to love on mine tomorrow.

29.9k... yes, if the AC is working 
I get an urge to buy it and fix it. All it needs is some TLC and new...everything.

Needs cosmetic restoration. haha. A reference to anyone that has called Gullwing.
If you deduct everything that needs to be replaced on the car it comes up as a negative number.
OUCH!!!!!
I'm late to the party but, I pass by there all the time as a friend has a business just 75 ft away. I'll drop by and read it its last rites this week. On a lighter note there IS a Bizzarinni Strada there and an M1. I have seen some reasonable, decent cars in there but, never at an honest asking price.

Haha - Yeah do that !
BTW: NICE avatar. Always wanted a DeLorean. Hopefully I'll find one someday, when I've sold some of my other cars.
did this sell?
Not 2 me. 
Gosh, what if some poor guy buys the car and comes on the forum to ask for advise in restoring it? I think that car is going to make some parts vendors very happy
funny seems like an easy fix to me
There's another "bargain" for sale at beverlyhillscarclub.com, it's cheaper too 
...excellent candidate for restoration...

11K miles... what a shame.
11k miles. Looks like an easy resto. A little TLC and an A/C recharge and you're ready for Monterey.
TLC? How can they put it on the lift and it not collapse through the floor?
This thing must have been underwater for quite a while. Even the dash board is cracked.
I'll bet the ZF is only good for it's case...maybe?
The only thing that is rotten is the glass and I'll bet you the lamination is separating.
Sickening really.

Not to put a damper on those who are poking fun at these fine cars, but is it possible that they may actually be the storied, and ultra rare, Superleggera models crafted by the Käsemeisters of Switzerland using the age old Salzwasser und Vernachlässigung method passed down within the Bank Kartoffels? Or as the Italian's call it, the acqua salata e di abbandono technique of the secret order of the divano di patate?
How else can you explain the disconnect between the apparent condition and the asking prices?
