Hi,

I would expect that price to be at the top, or above, what most people would be willing to pay for a non-running '74 L-48 that needs paint and interior work, and probably everything in between.

GSA!??
Wining buyer must submit an email application to no less than 5 people for approval to remove vehicle from govt property. Kevlar helmet and eye protection must be worn while bidding on vehicle. New owner must sign 'not for on road use, cannot be sold in the future and will only be driven after the passage of congressional funding acts'.....

Sorry. I deal with GSA fleet vehicle frequently......

The reserve is not met yet at nearly $7k?!? Heck, they're lucky, they're getting that much! I agree with Pete, that's right at the top IMHO too. The good part about this car, is that it is a complete, stock, 1974 and not a beat up shell, that barely runs (Like what I purchased....). The engine and all the accessories are all there and I see zero evidence of Bubba. Even the ignition shielding and factory AC compressor are still there.

Still, $7k is the max I'd pay, because we all know, about what it'd be worth and what it would cost to bring it back...
