Looks pretty solid and comes with a ton of parts. Even has a clear title.

If this was closer I'd go and look at it. Can you imagine showing up to your local autocross event with one of these?

I like those.

If you do too, don't look here:

I told you not to look.

I feel like the clean title is worth all the monies. Whenever I see these old euro oddballs, they never have titles.

They're always in a sketchy backwoods corner of the mountains though, just like this one.

Oddly enough...the guy's got a boatload of spares as well.

I have an extra 2.3 16v cosworth (Mercedes) and getrag dogleg that would be fun in that. It's planned for my Zender 190e though....

This thing is haunting me more than any other car ever posted on the boards. I keep telling myself it is a rusty piece of crap and not worth any further thoughts, but it isn't working.

In reply to Brett_Murphy:

It doesn'tlook too rusty. Not for a '60 model English car.

Brett you totally need to get that. I'll even help you work on it if you let me co-drive at the autox.

These things, while quite dorky in stock form have so much potential

There are so many transplants in this area, you never know what is hiding in the back yard.

I am in Asheville area once or twice a week. How is it that I am not seeing these old cars??? Been in Black Mnt, Candler and Weaverville area for hours.

I take that back, I did see a house on a hill near main rd that has a bunch of MB on the front yard.

You are not getting far enough off the beaten path that's all. I would be careful poking around these parts too much, there are still moonshiners in these mountains that don't take kindly to visitors.

You'll need to log in to post.
