Car looks great, tho I always hate for-sale photos featuring garbage cans as the background:). Is it a 4sp, or 5sp (gear shift knob seems to show the classic 4sp H pattern). What are rpm's at 70 mph? And, is it Dedion or solid rear axle setup? Price is very realistic, IMHO. Very affordable price for entry into the world of 7's.

KIT kAT, those are recycling containers(LOL), how about 67Etype,'65 Healey, 2016 Aston Martin in background. Retired Ph.D. research neurosurgeon. When UPS man made weekly visit with missing parts, saw boards covered in white contact paper with tools laid out neatly and asked "you do surgery in here?" Anyway car is 4 spd, 70mph just a bit more than 3500, 18.75 mph/1000revs, solid axle. I have an "enthusiast not investor"chip on my shoulder so I am happy to let it go a little under market if it is the right person. Even considered asking submit essay before letting someone have it. Have been at this for fifty years, from front engine V12 330GT to MG TC, keep 'em twenty years or longer.
