...$175k, all in one piece...2 headlight car in the range of 8ma950-8ma1100. With the rare 2 gas tank option and ZF radiator...with prop sticks for the engine covers mounted on the base...and a strange rounding of the gullwing (see right below the door pull recess). Despite the Chevy engine color, maybe only missing the windshield squirter...and the armrests...and...

At least, another very original (meaning unrestored) car, where even the remnants of the tire pressure sticker are visible...

Simon, I'm with you--I think the green one for sale is very attractive...even, to not restore in any big way, just to drive (as the last owner did for 40 years). Its funny, for those of us who are polishing every bolt on our own cars (maybe because we had to...yeah...) whether the car is at 50 years old and at 75% of what it should be is not really different than a car like this at 50 years old and 60% of what it should be--meaning, they both need new leather, every piece of rubber and heim joint booties and shocks and replating everything and unsticking brakes and always a "who knows what" with the engine/trans...Both the red car and the green car don't show signs of previous big damage (though I'd cross my fingers tighter on the red car...).

But the green car looks like a good score on the 'frustration index,' both cars can be restored by the green car is just old, the red car probably has more stories to tell...
