Without seeing the car in person, but looking through the images on this auction (and the last time it was listed), I would think in today's market it is worth around that. There are more rough or less complete cars that have been trading hands - this one seems to be a reasonable start for an ambitious new coupe owner.Is the car not worth 10k?
“I've decided not to restore this car and will be using the funds on another project car, which is why it's up for sale again.”
Translation: I foolishly bought this coupe on emotion and didn’t do my due diligence and now I’m ready to dump it on an unsuspecting buyer.
The pictures look very familiar to me. I think these are the same images from when the car was listed originally. Which leads me to question the story that the New York guy bought it from the Florida guy - perhaps they are the same guy and he is trying a different approach after the first sale not going through? THis is all speculation - I still think it is worth $8k with the pile of parts. The only thing it is missing is a 5-speed trans. The slush box and the 4-speed are both dead weight in my mind (sorry to the auto folks out there).Palm Trees in New York?
Wasn't this originally for sale by our forum member Floridabmx? I am almost certain it was his car.
Gents, in a couple of years we can't even touch this for less than 20K

I don't doubt this is the case. But I have a technical/IT question. This new seller appears to be using all of the original photos from the listing when it was being sold from a guy in Florida (remember them - and the palm trees are a dead giveaway) . If these are separate individuals, how does one obtain/use all of the original photos for their new eBay listing? Was the car sold with a thumb drive of photos? :confused:It was sold on ebay a few months ago in florida and now this guys selling it.
I've saved some postings - but would never consider using the pictures from them if I relisted. While I imagine copyright infringement isn't technically at play here, it seems unethical and/or misleading. I am in the design field, I look at content ownership (graphic as well as intellectual) differently than some.You don't save the postings when you are researching cars?
