Update 11\/26\/11: <\/strong>I got some more picture<\/a>s from the seller.\u00a0 The trunk rust situation is worse than I expected -not horrible -just needing attention.\u00a0 Still, it could be a good deal for the money.\u00a0 Throw them an offer -it may stick.<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>This could be patched, but replacement would be cleaner.\u00a0 Not the biggest job in the world and not really a sign that the rest of the car is rusty.\u00a0 My Sprint had it’s trunk floor replaced and you’d be hard pressed to find rust anywhere else on it.<\/strong>
\nUpdate 11\/12\/11: <\/strong>Seller has received some interest but it’s still available.\u00a0 $13,000 obo?
\n<\/strong>
\nGiulietta Sprint 10105*21453.\u00a0 <\/strong>This car is available right now out of Southern California for $14,000 obo.\u00a0 It is fairly original, with blue paint over original white and\u00a0 original drivetrain.\u00a0 Interior is decent but the seats are not original.\u00a0 There is a tiny bit of rust in the trunk battery corner and in the corner of the rear windshield, but nothing unusual or terminal.\u00a0 If you’re in California and looking for a very good car to fix up as a driver project -this is your car.
\n\"\"<\/a>A better shade of blue than the preceding SS.\u00a0 Car looks straight and solid here -you may get away with a quick respray of the nose and tail.\u00a0 I’d make it mechanically sound and drive it as is.<\/strong>
\n
\n\"\"<\/a>Trim looks good -not great but serviceable if you just want to drive a Sprint.<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>Nice looking shape from this angle, in this light and at this DPI.\u00a0 I want it just to look at.<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>Assume some patches in the trunk floor will be required, but not a full replacement.<\/strong> This could just be bad prep coming though.<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>Looks like your typical half-baked by sun Southern California car.\u00a0 Window trim is present and the trunk fits good.<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>Paint is checked and prep wasn’t as good as it could have been leading to this surface rust coming through.<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>Wiper blade is a little long for the application.\u00a0 Hood is ajar.\u00a0 Window surround trim is good all around.
\n<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>Work to do but it doesn’t look too bad.\u00a0 Mirror is not original, neither is seat.<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>Spider seats maybe?\u00a0 Original carpet is pretty far gone -almost mummified.\u00a0 Door panel looks original.<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>Tidy up required.<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>Looks like your typical Sprint engine compartment circa 1988.\u00a0 Turns over by hand, a little fiddling and it should run.\u00a0 Will probably require rebuilding in the long term.<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>Positive ID.<\/strong>
\nAlright you California Giulietta enjoyers -a Sprint in your backyard, in good shape and ready for a rebuild at a decent price.\u00a0 <\/strong>Are you going to let this head off to Germany or is one of you going to step up and keep this local?\u00a0 Email me at sprints @ giuliettas . com and I’ll put you in contact with the seller.
