Looks like the longer wheelbase LSC. Lots of good parts there for the money, especially interior.

Sorry about the listing, But I said where it was. Simple enough to find.

I’d definitely be interested if it were closer… I have an ‘84 ‘nose’ that would be a perfect start for a rebuild.

What do you think shipping would cost

Not sure… Texas to Massachusetts is pretty far.

Likely $1000-$1500. Nearly what the owner is asking for the car.

That said, the pricing seems very good even including shipping.

More work than I'm willing to put in but a good starter'

It still would be a pretty good deal… however I’d have to factor in the cost of finding another place to live after my wife found out I’ve purchased another Avanti!!!

HA !  Sounds like a personal problem....but I understand..

Yeah, including our daily drivers I have a file of 8 titles and I'm running out of Barn Space. I need to start re-selling before another purchase can be made.

2 cars are going up 'for sale' in the Spring.  Need to turn profits and move forward.

Sounds like a plan… Good luck friend!

Maybe I could add an addition to the Barn?

Out of sight, out of mind?

That's what I have been working on for a year. Trying to put a large building up. Trying to hide my toys from my wife. Dealing with the EPA sucks. Everything you do with them requires a check. Had to pay them just to read my LOI. Hopefully Trump will straighten them out. MAGA

A friend had to pay $100,000.00 fine because he took debris from his job sight to his shop to put in his shop dumpster. All because it crossed the county line with it.

'63'.. Thats Bull$#!t

EPA?  I can understand the issues in LA Calif due to runoff, but even that is insanity.

We used to live in Suburban Chicago and had issues with Permitting and escalated costs, We finally moved out to the Mountains in NC. These Cities and Suburbs are getting out of hand, from aa lot of aspects of life.... and Yes, I hope this New Admin will throw in and back off.

I rebuilt a Farmhouse and a few years later built this Barn. Permitting cost me $150 and was ready the same day. I built it from local Sawmill Wood for $2500ish. The metal roof was the most of the expense.
