I think when I get one it will have to 112 Lime Green like I used to have but this was my second color.

IdahoKidd Posted March 23, 2010 Share #2 Posted March 23, 2010 Nice car, serial # just over 800 from mine. Curious to see what it sells for.

auzziez Posted March 24, 2010 Share #3 Posted March 24, 2010 If you're interested in the car, let me know. I live less than 5 miles from Golden Classics. I may have to go by to check it out myself.

Bonzi Lon Posted March 24, 2010 Share #5 Posted March 24, 2010 Attempting to read that colorful text made me dizzy. Anyone notice the ebay part of the description said it was a convertible?Bonzi Lon Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/35163-why-are-so-many-of-these-turning-up-in-florida/#findComment-313517 Share on other sites More sharing options...
oskidunker1 Posted March 24, 2010 Author Share #6 Posted March 24, 2010 Probably they are using a template from a Prior car that they did not update.If its a convertible, they hid the sawed off top pretty good.

DeMoore Posted March 25, 2010 Share #8 Posted March 25, 2010 It's a great looking car, but for a car that was supposedly pampered and driven only 118 miles in the last 26 years, why would it need a valve job or a even a new clutch and brake master cylinder or paint? I can't believe that they would do all that work just to sell it.

Carl Beck Posted March 26, 2010 Share #9 Posted March 26, 2010 their website says sale pending...Prospective buyer went to look at it - and walked away. I'm sure he was very disappointed... I looked at the car today. Had to ask twice if this was the car they have on e-bay. Classic example of why you NEVER buy a car without first physically inspecting it.FWIW,Carl B.

Carl Beck Posted March 27, 2010 Share #11 Posted March 27, 2010 (edited) A repaint - of very low quality. Glass left in the car etc..{Maako Special}Dry rotted carpet,cracked dash with half dash cover,bad weather stripping/sealsPlastic Rear Panel - for the tail lights - replaced with a sheet of dark gray cardboard.Chrome on the rear bumper is a mess.Entire under carriage coated with black undercoatEngine components all painted... very amateur and juvenile. Things that were originally Yellow Cad are now painted black, valve cover painted gray, fuel lines painted white....get the picture?Impossible to tell how or if rust damage was fixed. At this point the actual body looks pretty straight, but you would have to strip it bare metal to see. This "might" have been a good car at one point, but it looks like it fell into the hands of 14 year old, that had time to screw with it but no funds to do anything right.In short - a real crying shame...

bigoak Posted March 27, 2010 Share #12 Posted March 27, 2010 Wow...that would be worse than my E-bay purchase, if only for the price (now just under $13k).Great photos....
