    wow, thanks for posting this.... i do have that 308 itch again in a bad way.... and we dont have any emissions testing here , so i can get whatever and play with it ! :)

    sucks the shipping from the west coast is so high now :sad: , that alone has been scaring me off from the cars out west.

    One of the rare "luggage" models too. No back seat.

    All you need is the GT4 from the mid-west that ran good but had a crunched nose. It was posted about two years ago and even included a short vid clip of it running and backing out of the garage.

    Engine fire, or simply "exposed to heat"?

    That car has the sorriest looking interior I have ever seen.
    That is a freaking disgrace!

    I wouldn’t pay more than $1500.00 for that piece of garbage and I LOVE the GT4 Dino.
    She had a small engine fire then stored…can we say rust magnet…she is in very bad shape…what a crime

    It says '' ONLY 60,000 MILES, JUST OUT OF LONG STORAGE '' “LOCATED IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA,IT IS NOT RUSTY”

    Only 60K miles…
    Long storage…not good…
    No rust…yeah right, the engine bay has a serious rust issue as well as in the cabin…

    She needs full restoration from the ground up…
    Even the radiator is rusted out !!!


    It needs at least 6k for the interior
    5k for a new paint job
    At least 15K for frame restoration/windows/missing parts
    And another 5K easy for the engine to come back to life

    Restoration cost is already over the price of one in very good condition. I saw a few for sale around 25-32K
