......fixable


I had to share when I saw 4 lug drums on a 67 Laughing The rear lights are at least from 68. May be two cars but I think its the same car at different times. They do that trick all the time here.

Could you get "factory" disc brakes in 67 like he claims?


Euro '67s were available 4 lug disc brake. i had a shot at a pretty decent euro 67 several years ago and still wish i would have grabbed it....


Interesting. I had a euro 67 that had single circuit brakes, 1300, early headlights, later 67 seats, black dash knobs, and 67 doors.




It has early front fenders and late rear fenders, chances are the brakes are ghia. The ad states he was going for original and we all know that everything on the Internet is truth. Like I said its fixable if you got it for the right price


I was referring to Luckystiff's post about euro 67's getting 4 lug disc brakes. Never heard of that.

The car in the ad is definitely a mish-mash of parts. Looks like a power pulley on that engine, too.

Agreed. Compared to others posted in here, that one is near museum quality. Very Happy

Found this on the front page, although I'm pretty sure it doesn't count due to the hilariously obvious image manipulation.

Yeah, I know it's a mockup, but it's a mockup FOR an abortion.

That's because in most of Europe you could get both 1500 deluxe and 1300 pov pak at the same time.

1300 still had 4 wheel drums, less trim etc where as 1500 had discs, more trim etc

Nice. I have come to refer to those as "NAPA models". Base models meant for parts delivery.

Do people from Florida move to NY? I always thought it was the other way around.

I agree with Everett, we need much clearer photos of the paint details.
