Just had to have this, 800 bucks, picking it up tonight. It's now picked up, and in the yard! Fiberglass in great shape, no cracks, just a few chips. Back end is full of parts, including front lights, two more red rims. Almost matches the color of my truck! There is white paint under the carpets, seats not attached, but girlfriend is going to mend the tear in the passenger seat, nice girlfriend! In fact, you might get a kick out of this video of our pizza place, which is just right and behind the red truck, as reviewed in the local mpls paper:

Lots of junk inside of car, but owner said it's in really good shape. I know my turbo car needs more attention on the idle side of things, but maybe it's a good thing for us to have a time-out! Dave

yeah, couldn't help myself! It's a '77, and the kid can't get it started. New fuel pump, but not working! He can dump some fuel in the intake and it runs. Maybe a relay!! I have a ton of '77 parts from Applebit, so should have plenty of parts to get it running.

What's up with the red/black interior? Is that aftermarket stuff?

Nice score! The body kit alone is worth the price of admission.

It's a healthy addiction.

If those Fun Pops come with it, you got a smokin' deal!

If that martini interior cleans up nice, you might be able to make your money back just on that.

Those 4-lugs are going to be challenging to find wide enough to fill those rear wheel wells...

Nice dude! Didn't know it had cgt flares, and cgt front clip! If you decide you cant fix it.. those red fenders/front fascia almost match my car...

After the initial survey, the PO's new fuel pump had no chance! The tank has a few inches of very smelly varnish! THe pump just gets hot to the touch, no noise, no pumpy. May need a new sender as well. Good starting point though, and engine compartment looks complete. He could get it started with fuel thru the t/b.

Judging by the interior, complete with intact console badge, that appears to be a Martini edition that someone slapped CGT f/g panels onto. Not a bad score for $800, not bad at all! And definitely a worthwhile destination for some of those tasty apple bits you picked up
