Just passing this along. A 4 speed w/ A/C. Long Island, NY

Forty grand, huh? Not too long ago a car like this would have struggled to fetch 25. Which isn't to say it's not a good car -- it looks fairly original and unmolested. Hope the seller gets lucky soon. I hear we're headed for a recession.

 

Yikes gonna have to find a purist for that one. I like some hub caps but that lacks the flash of SSI or SSII

 

Shouldn’t it have hood stripes of some sort?

 

Believe they were optional: W-43 = full hood stripes and Y-73= pinstripes surrounding the "humps."

 

Build sheet and window sticker shows that it did have the stripes, but as it is also lacking the trunk lid/over the tail light stripes as well, means that it has had a re paint. Not a bad looking car.

 

I was thinking 25 was about right for the car, too. Problem with a price that high is you can't even start to negotiate. It reminds me of one time I looked at a car, and the guy wanted 40% more than it was worth. Couldn't start. Nice guy too. Nice car.

 

This car was listed for 43k and talked about in early March. It had different wheels and tires in the first ad.
