Ready to be able to tell your friends 'I bought a diesel, bro' and then see their face when you pull up in this bad boy?
Runs and drives, tons of new parts in the braking system, recent engine service and adjustment of the pump. See photo.
Has raceland coilovers, new windshield, newer battery. Body has a GREAT original patina, no major damage (some scratches and minor dings) and no major rust that I have found, just some surface on the chassis.
If this gets bids before 6/21 it will come with the 15' bronze Konigs and like new 195 50 15's, if it doesn't get bids before then it will come with the original 13' wheels with good tires. Ad will be adjusted depending on what happens.
You know that awesome Disney movie about the snail who gets all fast? in the beginning he races against himself from one side of the table to the other in like 15 minutes. Yeah this car watches that show and says 'man I wish I was fast like that', lol. This car isnt fast and tops out at about 70mph, but there is lots of aftermarket support to help that if you choose. Starts up fine, idles and doesn't have any stumbling issues at this time.
Missing front bumper, headliner/bows, original rear view mirror, and some dash pieces - see photos. No radio, turn signals are currently inop, and it has a brake light that comes on and off - my mechanic said it's just the sensor on the master cylinder. The driver's door handle doesn't open from the inside (cable came off, easy repair). the engine has a couple small oil leaks that never get low enough between oil services. Drivers seat has wear but comes with covers.
Car sold as is where is with all known faults stated, with a Utah Title. Payment must be cash or paypal after deposit is made after winning the bid. You are responsible for shipping.
