What would you give me for it?

A 71, 3 owners, one westcoast location (semi dry) barn kept...

Well, the ad on Craigslist (http://medford.craigslist.org/cto/5159726830.html) shows $4500. Looks like it has a lot of potential. No luggage rack (+), no body side molding (another +), looks like it still has wing window latches (+), desirable wheels (+++). Concerned about rust. Hopefully it runs/shifts/brakes and hasn't had an infestation of any kind. Not sure if I can justify $4500 with a lot of unknowns, but if you want to give it a home in the desert PM me and let's talk.

I'm going to have a look on Tue, let ya all know, I'd say 2800

mechanics better be good for $2800.

Remember that the '71 has extremely rare, unique rear light assemblies. They are a little longer than 70, 72-74, so if trashed, a little sheet metal work will allow the accommodation of the more common year. If truly rust-free and complete, $3k would be a good number for a restoration project.

That's a lot better looking than a "project". Did you buy it?

[SunnySideUp]

WOW! It sure cleaned up nicely.

[grisoni]

Yep, was dumb enough to get it, no rust to speak of, 45 year old paint seems like all original but the shitty top. Might be a keeper.
I'm not a "must keep all original" kinda guy so if anybody really wants it I'm open to offers once I clean it all up and fix the little things.

Yep, I said that!!
