def. legit from the pix - check out the tires... REAL Goodyear G800
redlines. WOW-eeee.
There are a few of these practically unused cars out there, but not many.
Are they worth upwards of $25k? Time will tell. Probably. In fact,
thinking about it, $25k wouldn't get you half of a really awesome
restoration and this one is _original_. It does need some tidying up (look
at the air pump in the engine bay pic), but it does appear to be all
there.
I just hope that whoever buys it DOCUMENTS WHAT THEY HAVE, because there
are very few legit, original and well documented cars out there anymore.
Personal note - I doubt I could ever own a car like that. The temptation
to drive it would be waaaaay to much fo me. :-)
