Interesting car. Who can tell what detail proves this car is not under SFDon's care?
Seems the Hemmings prices are all over the map. You don't see 328's often up for sale outside an auction, if ever. Both the 503 Cabriolet and Coupe are fantastic.
It doesn’t have a BMW battery!
I do like that.
Has reminded me to post an update on my 502.

I wAs going to say "it has carburetors"
Are Bosch batteries up to your standards Don? Tolerable?
Love 503s, especially the Series II. The Hemmings car is priced right & this is one of those, wish I could've & probably should've bought this in 5 years from now.

True. Don with garlic bulbs muttering Vade Retro Zenith is a good guess.
But if this car entered his shop the pedal assembly would trigger a full exorcism.
The clutch should never be on a forward plane with respect to the brake, I think.
