At first I thought the price in your first post was a typo. Then I hit the link and saw it actually was
that much. Obviously he was forced to put it up for sale and doesn't want anyone to bite. Probably
his parents have told him to get that piece o crap out of their driveway.

Either it has a lot of custom body work or its not a 78. Check out the bumpers will ya.

If it runs, its worth maybe 2K but it sure is ugly looking.

Do it, do it, do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lol
This is a hilarious post. Even if it was a decent price, I would not buy a car with a hand painted flag on the hood. It speaks paragraphs about the owner.

basically the way I see it this guy is really serious because he blatantly told me go and find one right now in this year to be imported right now. And I,chuckled and laughed and told him good luck.

You should point him to the 1983 RHD turbo that's been listed here and on eBay a could of times. It could be had for I believe $16,000, if it hasn't sold. It even has a new paint job. The RHD 12A turbo is more rare then this guys.

I would much rather have the 12A turbo, the last time I saw it on ebay, it was up to 10000. I think that guy added a couple zeros too many
