Just thought I’d help the community out!.. here you go…
I saw that on ebay then on CL this morning. I’m thinking he’s gonna have to drop his price quite a bit. Factory paint is the #1 thing that gives these old cars value and that’s he one thing his car doesn’t have. I can’t see many people spending $5k for a car that needs $3-4k in paint. Unless maybe they have a hook up on paint and body work. To make the issue worse, all of the body trim and moldings are discontinued, so doing a high quality full respray becomes even more difficult when you have to carefully remove old moldings without breaking them. And with the sun damage to the paint I assume the moldings/trim aren’t in good condition either, since those can’t be replaced you’re basically screwed. Personally I’d rather have a car that has had zero mechanical maintenance done but had flawless paint. It’ll be interesting to see if it sells, too bad he’s got it listed so high on ebay as I don’t think we’ll get to see a final price since he’ll undoubtedly need to take a “best offer”.
Nice, located really close to me.
