That looks like an 850 Spider to me. Air-cooled engine, I think.

Correct. The Racer had a hardtop.

Water cooled though

Yes, water cooled, I had one.

Fun little car.

Wasn't sure about water or aircooled. Know it's rear engined though. And didn't know the hardtop version was called "Racer", thought it was just called "coupe". Just love this site for what you can learn.

There is a 850 Coupe as well - totally different body style (and maybe the most attractive of them all).

And an 850 sedan - http://grassrootsmotorsports.com/reader-rides/820/

"Surface Rust" !!! Not likely! I had a '69 in 1972, and the entire floor pan was already gone! They came from the factory with "surface rust", by the time they got off the boat, the floors were gone.

Man, I miss that car!

These cars rust from the inside out.

When my 85 died and I started parting it out, I discovered some body panels were bare steel on the back side. I guess if you don't see it, it doesn't need paint.

Here's one, cleaner for the same money.

Needs a 4.1L Cadillac engine Dan.

Dick.

It does though... and I resemble that remark.
