Default 78 sunroofless, painted Roller available

I have a 78 roller available. It is painted but not assembled. Roller means no engine or transaxle.

Will obviously have other wheels go with it. All glass included. GT wheels NOT Included.

some modifications to the rear area but battery and tank are in normal locations.

I am in SoCal. I have a Connecticut title from early 2000s. Bumper was shaved of sprayers.

Don't have headlights or assembly.

I have seen this roller in person. The paint job on it is great. I'm drooling and seriously thinking about it.

Would my '85 engine and auto trans fit in this thing?

Any engine and any trans fits in all of the years- you are just working with different K members front and back and different torque tube lengths.

Is this the project you were going to do with your son where I have the engine you were going to use in it in my Spyder?

Rulez sez you gotta post a price, fool!

Does it have the '78 small rear seat hump for manual or larger for auto? Clutch master mount?

Yes. He was not as interested in it at those times as I was, so I sold everything off except a few things.

He is 21 and in France now for a year.

hey Ken. Long time no talk.

Small hump. Clutch master mount. Early-mid 78.

Technically no price since it's free.

But it will have to be put on some wheels and shocks as I'll sell the wheels (hollow spike turbo twists with chipping paint) and coil overs (adjustable konis with dual springs modified to accept adjustment threads)

Free?!?!?!?!

You're killing me Smalls. I have a spare engine and trans (auto, so probably the wrong kind), but too many projects already.

The car looks pretty great, I hope it goes to a good home.

Cheers

Step 2 - list on BAT

Time for Rob E and Mark A to join forces. Could be a really nice 78 to toss up on BAT
