Invoiced: 1/23/1974. Not crazy about this interior. I guess it is supposed to echo the exterior color. Not crazy about that, either. Car was originally Olympic Blue (L26.) Engine has headers, otherwsie looks stock. Engine compartment could also use some cleaning up. Seats have tape on splits open covers, says it needs front end work, power boosters deleted, paint has stress cracks. Except for all that, seems mostly original, but really showing its age. Video of it being driven. Registry says it belonged to Karl Szczypta in Illiniois (now in New Jearey), not running and in need of restoration back in 2004.

The car was sold in July for $7500 through this forum. Two months later the car showed up on facebook marketplace for $14,500, but apparently didn't sell. Now giving BaT a whirl.

Sold for $16,000. I thought that was a pretty good price for a car that could be made A LOT better without a full restoration...

Flipped for over double the money.

I was going to jump in on this 1, but the cost to make it "right" for me would have brought it into the upper 20's, and just didn't want to spend the time or money. It's been a while since I've been here but I'm still looking.
a very nice Europa would be cheaper than my bathroom remodel and a whole lot more fun!
