Is it, really? The car has been for sale since 2008 or so, and that alone should make you ask, "Why?". It is not as rust free and as straight as those doctored pics would lead you to believe. The original owner would have been better off leaving it as original as possible and selling it to a talented bodyman, as it did have quite few options. His efforts have not added value to the car, IMHO.



Check the plate number

The car took a hit in the rear and likely one in the front (that bumper was twisted up as well. There is a light ding on above the driver's front tire. Notice the rust holes the drivers and passenger's side beneath the rear windows (not suprising), as well as the rear quarters (again nothing shocking here), but it does make you ask if and how they were repaired.

Does that twisted right rear tailight indicate a laser straight car? Even on one of his doctored pics the hood alignment looks boogered. On the interior, he replaced the dash bezel and added some crazy gauge pod by the kick panel to monitor the propane system.

Bottom line, those original photos taken in the SoCal sun are hiding quite a bit. Oh, did I mention that the owner is a phtographer by trade? At $15k, there are better deals out there. An example would be BB Dave's A56 FB 4speed for one. Cruise craigslist a little bit if you are looking for a convertible. Your $15k would be better spent. If you still want to pursue it, I have his e-mail. Feel free to PM me.
