If it runs OK and there is no rust on it, this is a hell of a deal. Nice
ones are easily worth $3K. Perfect ones are worth $5K. Ones with rusty
pans are worth less than $1K, if the final drive works. They are a real
bargain as an exotic car. Italian design in fiberglass. Light weight. The
seats are almost as laid-back as a Europa's. The sliding lumbar panels
are neat.
These cars were more popular in New England (imported at Orange, CN) and
the Upper Midwest due to their snow-slicing abilities. Unfortunately,
those are the places the salt attacked the belly pans.
I have much more information than is appropriate to post on this list. I
will email it to anyone who asks at phile@stpaul.gov
