People usually want to see price first: edited: $19,750

All photos taken at 8PM 5-31-15

Sunflower Yellow, Standard Trim, Odometer shows just under 42K. I have some documents to support the mileage from the previous three owners. Tank Sticker is almost faded out. I retained all original parts removed (example, the original door handles need re-chroming and I replaced them with good handles but retained the originals) The only parts that have been replaced (by previous owner) that I do not have are the valve covers and air cleaner. On a percentage bases (not including paint) appears to be 95% original. Has original rim/spare tire (Firestone wide oval I think). Have the original center caps but one has some damage. New original style mufflers. Headlights and wiper doors pop open without delay. The paint is fair for the most part with some exceptions as in photo. There is one small rectangular hole just above right rear bumper about 2 inches long 3/4 inch high and was there when I bought. Non-ac car for anyone needing to know. Car runs great. The only thing not working: clock.

And...... many wonder "why are they selling"? Well, this is a 4-spd and I am having trouble with a left knee and would like an automatic. I would consider a trade for a 69-72 coupe w/auto but the chances of two people agreeing is pretty slim. Possible, but slim. I will want to remain a C3 owner at some point.

If you've seen any of my "help needed" threads here, you'll know that most things I posted were fairly minor, fuel smell? replaced some parts. Had a wire on the electronic conversion rub the distributor shaft and caused a backfire, hence the new mufflers. (by the way, I have all those original ignition parts too) I would like to enjoy this car as long as I can but if a buyer comes along,....well....

Thanks. Perhaps I am asking too much. I am not in a hurry to sell so....

I know everyone speaks of the "good" when selling, but this is truly an almost original car. If it weren't for the paint it could almost be called a "survivor".

I've edited the price to $19,750......I've had a few folks tell me I was being "too proud".
