I always figured you'd find more in a bar...

Europas are certainly intoxicating.

    :blowup:   Read this statement!     :blowup:

     OK, time for the nitty-gritty, the seller proclaims, “Not taking offers – if you make an offer on this I will NOT sell it to you even for what I am asking for it.” There you go, you have been forwarned… $10,000 firm with an engine that is “all blowed up”. What do you think, worth the risk?


    PS   Darn spleen check....

This guy was originally asking $15k about a month ago for the same car, appears the price has gone down a lot. Also he was advertising the car in the auto parts section of CL probably to save the $5 or so bucks that CL now charges for car ads. Gotta love the guy's attitude

If you already have a 4AGE conversion ready to go in, this may be a decent way to go.

Price is now $7000.

Pair this car up with this 4AGE conversion, you would have a decent car.

At the current price I would be very interested if I first had the funds lying around and also did not expect that $7K would get my current car running.
Would be interesting to know more about the engine.
On the other hand, core engines are available from a couple of sources, even feeBay.

You can see it on youtube. It more like a $4500 car.
