Of course at 230 HP the only thing it’s seeing is Elizabeth’s tailgate…

Now at 16k
Plenty of chatter about the 2.0 turbo motor in Italian tune; some of the confusion was self-inflicted by the seller. One number mentioned was well under the US market 2.3 figures.

Pretty clean RestoMod, I'm not a shiny wheel kinda guy but they do look nice. To my eye, it is a bit too much silver all in one gulp.
Like the red interior though; my '69 was grey over red.

Yep, too much chrome wheel (or polished). But nice car. Tidy engine bay.

At least the Enthusiast with the 940 used (mostly) stock stuff; the Tremec 6-speed behind the red block is an interesting wrinkle.
The F/B build looks like it's perched on a 'Murican 4X4 frame of some sort.

Euro market car, 2.0 motor, and they're calling it something other than Saffron.
Looks pretty clean; dry ice blasting under is kind of curious.
Santa merde !
Hammered for $26,000.

Looks like it was a passion project for a vocational school instructor, using some "student help".
Yes, he knows it's the wrong grill insert.
