Isn't that the brown bentley in the driver's headrest?
Looks like the seller attempted to learn about T3s via exosmosis.
But the car does look worth rescue.

So true. It's super clean, thats very true, I've seen it, with nice components, but 85k? Markets not that big for that car, but he can ask, just won't get it imo. He does seem a little arrogant about the car. |

I must be an out of touch a-hole. The only names I knew were Buddy Hale and Pedro oh and Erik G  
That stuff just does not float my skirt. 85k? Im glad im invested at this point of the game.

Good to know I'm not the only dipstick who's tried to pull the engine, but forgotten to remove the dipstick

Oh come on type 3 boys! The ad is ment to be funny. You guys need to get out more. Too serious. I'm not that arrogant and yes I've seen David Ho. He actually called me and I referred him to buddy so don't get so uptight. I've tried to talk to you guys. But you type 3 click are too stock nazi for me most of you guys judge everyone's car as if their goal is the same as yours. The beauty of these cars is they should be built to anyone's taste. Not yours. Value is subject to what someone is willing to pay and also what it cost to build. But hey well see what happens. The guys that know me know I'm a ball buster and like to have fun. So don't take yourself so serious and let people enjoy the hobby. Besides pawn stars says I'm a car expert so it must be true! (Another joke)

I read the ad and laughed at the text, it sounds exactly like your voice and personality in real life.

Although I think this is a car worthy of being restored, it's still about $2k too high. I get that it's a super early car with a few unique parts but it would take at least $15k and a few years to collect parts and properly restore such an early car. Not rare based on its current condition in my opinion.

Neat that it's so early. I agree it would take a ton of cash and parts to do this one.
I'm not sure what this text means, maybe he doesn't know the engine # is on the top center?

Likely the engine case part #.
I agree, the asking price seems a bit ambitious. But, at the same time, it is a very early car...
