Looks nice, but that green color.... Uggh. Yuk.

 

[Stan]

Hahaha! That is Agave and looks much better when clean waxed.
Chuck Moss @iconoclast6 has an award winning Agave E9 and it is beautiful

I like it! It is one of the better examples of the color that I've seen lately.

Electric mirrors FTW!

 

[Dohn]

Three photos and a four line description for a $38,000 car? No engine, trunk or underside shots? Did the owner think he was on Twitter?

 

[bimbill]

Power outside mirrors were an option (maybe even standard) on MY 74 US E9s.

 

[HB Chris]

It’s either Amazonasgrun or Jadegrun not Agave which wasn’t available in 74.

For anyone who may be interested, I sent the seller a note and he sent me some photos: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1sSnE_EhVw1QCJVQP72MR6pTeVCkp6wFl?usp=sharing

Those pics look suspiciously like BHCC. (Indoor pics with cracked concrete floor, an unhappy buyer?)

This one popped up before on Hemmings or Ebay or Old Car Trader. I remember because of the color (jadegrun), the fact that it's a 74, and the lack of a sunroof made me really interested, until I saw the seller...

When the next earthquake hits those cracks will be dangerously wide. Remember the sink hole? at the Corvette Museum.

Jadegrun

Aside from the engine compartment rattle canned, it really doesn't look bad at all.

 

[floridabmx]

Doesnt look too horrible at all. Id love to oven cleaner that black (rust proofing?) out the engine bay.

Oh my, I do remember the Corvette sink hole. I was doing a project in Kentucky, flying in every other week for three years. What an automotive tragedy.

I do remember an earlier listing of this car with the BHCC floor. It is a dead giveaway. Although a good, clean rendition of this color is pretty cool in my book.

AC faceplate, no sign of it under the hood. Did the US '74s have the white piping on the braces in the trunk? My euro '74 has the white piping. Trunk and interior look good except for the ubiquitous speakers on the rear shelf. They annoy me more than the ones in the kick panels. Toolkit?
