Hi 69r,

" most all matching numbers"
"a must have for the true collector"
"easy project, all the hard work's done"

I hate to ask this, but what the heck is that stuck in the valve cover!!!!
I think I would be done looking after seeing what it looks like in the pictures:willy:

I guess if you wanted to go road racing in a C3 this would be a good start. No guilty conscience about killing a restorable car. Is it for sale? How much? mike...

Manuel. My thoughts exactly.:rofl:

I was so close to doing this to my car like the conv car I seen at carlisle I think it was a penski car half w/s and a loop behind the seat

If he drops a zero off the price, buy it. Otherwise run Forrest, run.

Would they let a car on the track with a rubber fuel hose to the carb ? Maybe some of the old racers will chime in about the log book.

P.O.S ........can't even part it out.............P A S S !!!

20K for what. There is nothing there but a crappy body, frame and roll cage. That motor looks F'ed. Maybe that is why the Trojan in the valve cover.

The only good thing I can see is it looks to have Stahl headers.

I think the owner stuck it there quick when he heard his wife pull into the driveway while the neighbor lady was visiting him. She would never look in the engine compartment.

I am sorry I just can’t get passed the PCV deal. I would hate to know whats under the seat. :eek:

I thought the same thing! :rofl:

beige79 01-17-2011 08:26 AM

I am thinking that motor is screwed. :D

Seriously, $20K? For that? Best left in the barn - or put out to pasture.

bkvette3 01-17-2011 08:40 AM
