This is not a suitable daily driver, but will turn heads. A Prius has 3x the horsepower. This 1600 cc air cooled car is not fast, but is quick, and runs great.
The persona that comes with driving this is not for anti-social people, or anonymity.
Buy a mustang, challenger or camaro if you want less attention, or would be shy when someone yells "I LOVE YOUR CAR".
You might not be a celebrity, but you will soon be in images and videos on thousands of smartphones.
There is no radio, (the tailpipes sound cool enough).
No USB (leave your cellphone at home)
No cigarette lighter, radiator, a/c, or Bluetooth.
No power windows, locks, seats, mirrors.
No gps, On Star, XM, spare tire, jack, sun visors, shoulder harness backup camera or airbags.
Owner will be expected to listen and visit with random people, and respond to silly questions.
Owner should be able to smile for extended time periods, and look as though they are having fun.
Shaka sign hand wave is adequate response to anything said by anyone, anytime.
I am including many items that have accumulated with owning/ building. Plus a 2" hitch tow bar. It has been garaged, but should be covered because the bucket seats hold at least a gallon of rainwater.
I recommend checking on insurance options before committing
All offers will be considered, I have too many toys, and am eager to begin a new project.
Since the vin and title are 1958 it is grandfathered in on modernization requirements in most areas. These include and not limited to; mufflers, gas cap checks, catalytic converters, bumpers, and shoulder belts.
