Checked the car out yesterday. What wonderful lines these cars have and so mechanically simple. The car appears to be mechanically sorted out (except for an unavailable 2nd gear) and appears to be rust free on 1st inspection, but was (very) amateurishly restored quite a few years back - I was hoping for original condition. I will most likely pass on this sports car. On the other hand there were some way cool tools that may be available. Nice old Dayton grinder with stand, Craftsman variable speed (circa 1950) drill press, and a very nice Blackhawk 4-ton floor jack - all in nice condition. Owner has to check with nephew who has expressed interest (but no $ so far).

Thanks for your (amusing) feedback! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]
