Hey all,
I found this car for sale down the street from my house. Its a 73 1.7-liter. The interior is in great shape except for the dash. I believe it has 119,000 miles.
It has GT fiberglass flares that are cracking a little but look like they were put on in the right positions. It has 7 and 8-inch Fuchs and the 911 five-lug conversion. New tires. I don't think the owner knew the rears were wider than the fronts, since he had both 8s on one side! Its missing the front spoiler and the proper GT side skirts.
Its been sitting for a while, so the owner charged the battery and we drove it around the block. It feels like it might have a short shift kit, since it felt tighter than I was expecting. The brakes are VERY mushy and need to be gone through. It didn't smoke at all, and revved cleanly, though it needed a lot of gas to get off the line.
There is rust in the battery area, but zero exterior rust and the front trunk and floor look good.
I was thinking of buying it to convert to a six and use it as my new track day car.
What do you think this things worth?
