That's very true. And not a bad idea. I guess unless the owner verifies that it has the CBW, and original trans, we should assume it doesn't. Otherwiswe I'd certainly think it would be to his advantage to post that it/they are there. Whoever is representing this car through the bank has not done his due dilligence to try to get the best return on the auction.
Or, by being silent, slightly deceptive. It's the difference between 40, and maybe 60+.
I think if I bought it, I'd have to paint it blk with wht stripes. Big smile.

Paint it Shadow Gray with Black Stripes and I'll take it! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img] (That's what I wanted back in 1970.)

I don't think I'm too far away from the car.
If the seller is obliging,and someone wants me to go get a closer look and take pix of it for them,contact me at REDL78@Junodotcom or call me at home at 630-654-three five 0 nine.

I think if you look close at the underneath it is painted white. alot of street racers did this back in the day as they believed it kept the heat down and they ran faster.

I've seen that done before, but in this case, it looks like beige underneath to me. I guess we'll know tomorrow.

Ed, have your guy get a nice pic of the TT - that body number can only be one # per my calculations. If its not - then its trouble! There were only 2 Gobi Beige 4speeds with p/s, and the other one is alive &amp; well (but its painted black, with stripes done in silver - sounds like a cross between schoneye and cumby.... hmmm.... that didn't come out right!
