[RMG001]

Found a nice driver 81 sc while visiting the local independent shop the other day. No rust good looking respray in original color. Interior; seats very good as they had sheepskin covers dash good no cracks. Carpet rough on the drivers side in the footwell. Tires around 35%. No rust,was able to inspect the underside while on the lift..

Agreed to 22500 while it was in the lift pending tune for poor performance.

The mechanic is a respected air cooled specialist well past his prime. So works slow and hardly ever. Drained fuel tank. Replaced fuel pump and plugs. Could not get performance issue figured out before owner got frustrated and picked up car.
Owner is chasing gremlins and changing parts but can't get it to run beyond an idle. Won't take throttle without bucking and backfiring.
Has agreed to reduce price 2500 if I accept as is. Very honest older enthusiast that is as frustrated as anyone would be.
Which way to run. Towards it or away from it.
