Great car! Maybe I will try my luck, I will see at the end of bidding. At least you can buy this car 300 times better as the Racing basketcase which is also on ebay now!

Beautiful car - Looks like low mileage inside.

A few scabs on the wing but otherwise looks fab. ;)

On the photo it looks better than it is.
5 years and more than 250.000 km took his toll on the car and it has a lot rust now. This winter I am going to look iff the car can be restaurated. The bottum has also a ot off rust.
We will see, I hope I can repar it all. I had a lot of fun with this car.

just get it off the grass & onto solid ground, earlier this year i got a carlos sainz bonnet for my gti celica & the car it came off was on a lawn for a few years & the grass completely rotted the floor pan & sills to nothing, the car looked great but no underneath.

Yeah I know.  :-[

Thing is I've got nowhere else to put the green car yet - and I did only buy it for spares in any case. The floor was rotten when I purchased it, although all of the mechanicals are good - and only 19,000 miles from new too!

Still, the Racing is no longer on the grass, although I'd like to find that a dry home over the winter as she's starting to go in the top panels and front of the bonnet.

Oh, for Italian summers! :-\
