Hope it finds a good home, it needs a lot, an awful lot of love.

These have actually grown on me - at a rate commensurate with the skyrocketing prices of the 3.0CS!

HBChris do I recall you weighing on on the roominess for tall people on these? Are they cramped for those greater than 6’ 2” or 3”?

I like it, but it should say “project” in the title. Wonder if the raising e9 tide lifts all coupes? I’m rooting for this one.

I sat in one and didn’t fit, the seat rails are higher and based on the NK sedan.

well project is pretty subjective, some people drive around far rougher cars, on the other hand, my car was in pretty nice shape, but I, maybe foolishly took it all apart

Looks like a good honest base.

GLWS!

Newbie here, are these as expensive to fix as the 2800/3.0's? Inner fenders look nice on this one. Maybe some before and after pictures (64/65)?

 

[HB Chris]

Just as expensive with fewer trim parts available so refurbishing is key.

I'm 6' 2" and I sit pretty tall in my 2000CS. The seats are freshly reupholstered, so the foam is new and firm, it sits taller than when they were worn out, for sure. You won't be able to wear your Stetson while driving, I can attest to that...

The rust repair at the major points will be a challenge (front frame rails and rear subframe bushing attachments). I am very fortunate that my car didn't have those kind of issues, though we replaced the outer rockers. Does W&N sell the frame rails for the e9 ? Everything up top looks great, though. Engine bay is very nice.

Good luck with the sale.

By the way, those wheels are Octavo 100+, made in England. I like them very much; didn't know they came in 14"... usually see them in 13" on 2002s.
