COOL! Doesn't look like there will be much work on it. Obviously some paint, does it run? Im guessing after 10 years it might not.

ah! deja vu!
My car has a twin! But mine had sat in a garage for 17 years and had 56k miles.
Good luck, hope you can afford to make it a full time project instead of a driving project like mine has been!

That looks like a pretty good find. Low mileage, and apparently everything is there.
good luck

Shiny.
It's definately a 77.3 (for lack of a better term) - side flags, no alarm key in fender.
My early 77 has 85K on the clock, and a whole host of nightmares...

Heck, the seats, luggage rack, and rear clip look better than what I'm driving now.

you won't be needing those. Let me know if you need a place to dispose of them, I could find place for them.
