Maybe one day he will reduce the price and it will sell.  He's trying though, listing it in CA even though it's in PA.

What do you guys reckon it's actually worth?  That doesn't seem too far off for something with some pretty nice looking original speed parts on it..

It's worth what someone will actually pay for it. $6K?  But I would not be a buyer, you?

Sweet. I'd love to own it. I would add rearset controls but leave it period correct.
