Curious why he didn't include shots of the interior but t seems like a decent buy. I'd really suspect it's about 8000 instead of the 11k asking.

If the interior looks good, compression test looks good and she runs strong, that seems like quite a good buy even at $11k. That is a BOATLOAD of stuff to do to a car. Good paint could easily be another $4-$5k, though and you better not live somewhere you will miss having an AC.

That is an extensive upgrade and given what seems meticulous attention to detail, I wonder why there are no dyno specs? I mean if you are going to all the trouble to set the car up properly, why wouldn't you dyno it? And yeah, why no interior shots?

Keep the shiny side up

I just want to drive that thing. I mean I have plenty of things to do right now, and it wouldn't be right having no real interest in buying it.

That's the cool thing about this "Wheels and Deals" place near Palo Alto. People who want to sell just use this lot, and you do test drives with people who work there and contact the owner when your ready. Almost bought my first 6er over there.
