If you ate taking pictures with an iPhone and posting them with a PC, open the pictures in Paint (on all PC machines), click on "Image" "Resize" in the menu bar and enter 25%. At least that's what I do.

do you still have the Europa...........stan

[David.laRuse]

Stan, Europa is still for sale, currently licensed/clean Title which can be transferred, engine/Trans still in car, all glass intact, car can be rolled onto trailer, David.

[David.laRuse]

Wow, I am embaressed, The Europa is a 1974, not a 1972. I am sorry for the confusion. David

David, I'm not interested in this car but for those who might be, the pictures appear show an S2 and thus is pre 1972 - the sails are not cut down behind the cabin as on the '72 and later Europas. The engine cover does appear to be from a TC or TCS - it has only two vents.

Just to clarify any confusion on the 1972 MY. Fed-spec Europa S2 production continued until the end of Dec/71 (even though UK Domestic production of the Twin Cam had begun Sep/71). Fed-spec Twin Cam production began Jan/72. Because the Invoice date is a month or so later, any S2 built between Sep/71 to Dec/71 would have been invoiced between late Oct/71 and Mar/72 making them a 1972 MY Europa S2. The first small shipment of Fed-spec Twin Cams arrived in March of 1972 which means both the S2 and the new Twin Cam were being sold in the showrooms at the same and both were considered 1972 MY cars.

Thank you for clarification, I was under the impression the Europa was a 1972. I was looking at the Title and it said 1974, so I am sure this was a clerical error when the new Title was made out. I am satisfied it is a 1972 Europa. Thanks again, David

I am posting two more pictures.  The car is complete.  Solid chasis.  Good example to restore.  David (wendyanddavid@hotmail.com)

[David.laRuse]

Thanks to everyone for their input, I have decided to restore the Europa myself. I appreciate all the advise and help, the car is no longer for sale. David la Ruse

I think you will be glad you made that decision. Especially after you get it on the road!
