Update 3/31/09: Auction ended at $32,299 with 32 bids. This is strong money and reaffirms that SS’s are sought after right now. If the new owner is happy with the cosmetic condition and drops it off at a shop to be made to run and drive they will probabkly be $50K into it when they take their first test drive. They will be pushing $60K if they decide the two-tone paint needs to be rectified. The DIY home mechanic could probably see this on the road for about $40K out of pocket. The white SS that was on eBay recently is looking better when all this is considered.
Update 3/29/09: A kind reader took some pictures when he went to see it in person. He reported that it needs more work than he thought it would before seeing it and that the paint was not as good as it looks in the pictures. Still, this is one of the better SS projects to show up in a while. Spy shots here.
Giulia Sprint Speciale 10121*381357, no engine number stated, but said to be original. Available right now on eBay out of La Habra Ca is this 1965 SS. Seller says it’s a 1966 but it was (according to Fusi and d&T) made in 1965, the year production ceased at car number 381399. The two tone treatment is reminiscent in my opinion to that seen on some Lotus Elites. Some assembly required.
This is a great angle for SS’s. I like the two-tone treatment, but would consider painting the roof to match the body color.
When I worked at Applied Materials there was a courtyard completely surrounded by the building and every year a Mallard duck would sneek in there and lay eggs in the bushes, hatch babies and provide a general sense of cuteness to the semiconductor engineering world. This scrum is 5 of 12 from 2005.
Very very classy in white with chrome accents. I think I underestimate how cool these cars look in white. This example is keeping company with some serious cars here.
1493*26018 is not only 67 cars older than the next car, it is photographed in the same spot. There are some event stickers on the quarter window which if nothing else indicate this car drives well enough to do a few hundred miles.
