              This one is almost a shame to swap, but pretty. I really wish I had some time to tinker with mine right now

                Ha dude I know!! I saw it, it would be a curse to tear that car apart. I think its a heck of a deal for someone at 15k looking for a pristine car. I would rather it be like the rest of them w a broken odo, 150k miles, but clean, driven and maintained with a price under 10k which I havent found yet in AW. Plenty of other colors to pick from it seams when its the color you are looking for the right one does not pop up so fast.

Seller is really cool, we spoke about the car yesterday and he provided me with more photos. The CL photos show the car very well, but it does have some (minor) rust issues in the rear tail light area, the roof and sunroof. It also needs a lot of body work, the rust is a deal breaker for me. I am super bummed because it checks all the boxes and then some.

                    To answer your question yes I would be happy to pay a finders fee if someone found the right car.

                      -Must be a coupe
                      -Must be gray, alpine white, silver or black exterior (Prefer Alpine)
                      -Must have documentation
                      -No rust or salvage titles
                      Does early or late model matter?

                        I am pushing for an 89-91 however I wouldnt rule out an earlier car if everything was right as I know anything can be changed to what I like.

                            The Schwarzy looks cleaner than than the Alpine.

                              It sure does. Man I cannot believe how many alpine coupes there are in CA. that’s like red for Florida. I have found 3 cars within a 300 mile radius of me that are incredibly clean Florida old person style stock condition. All are RED
