I saw that episode. I absolutely could not believe it when he pulled up in that car... The only redeeming value his decision had was that it was small enough to push.

It did finish though.

Pirelli P7? I bet they are older than 5 years. If so, time for new tires. Those will delaminate with little warning.
nice looking car

Epsilon wheels with P7's? Those each have to be at least 20-25 years old. Check the wheels, but I'm with Dave on tossing the tires immediately if you plan to drive it.

Otherwise it looks remarkably straight. Nice find!

Lighten up Tabs, at least he didn't buy a late model mustang...

Is this car already sold ? I thought I saw it on Ebay, but when I went back, it was gone.

I have great childhood memories of the Scorpion. A white one. I don't remember much about how it drove, but it was just one of those car designs that would attract a little boy. My parents friend used to baby sit me and we'd always go to Baskin Robbins and get ice cream. My favorite was mint chocolate chip, and still is to this day. They still have this car, about 29 years later, though I don't think they drive it much anymore. As early as I can remember all the way through today, I always ask how that car is doing. I'd love to get my hands on it one day.
