Seems a bit pricey to me.

Yep.
I talked to some tooo smooooth sounding guy there about a Sonett tank for Robert and the guy nearly refuses to say a price, like "make me an offer" so I say $50,
tops and he returns "i wouldn't evebn think of less that 250...rare! rare! RARE!

I said then you will sit on your rare junk just like every other Sonett fool.

Look at the falling to pieces interior, filthy, shit hole egine compartment, and as always with assholes selling junk they know nothing about ZERO info on what engines internals, and above all WHAT GEARBOX.

Just confirms what i think of "glitzy" places and roadrace junk---always a facade.

He always has over priced stuff, much of it crap. I think that Sonnett has been for sale a couple years now. He rotates stuff every few months. I think he watches too much Wayne Carini on HD Tv....

That's shit, not worth $ 1000.
There's a REAL good deal in Alaska - 1969 Sonett for $ 1999/obo. I'd like to buy it but how in hell to get to LA?

I drove Seattle to Los Anchorage in Feb 85 with customer in a 96 with my rally springs and shocks and nice exhaust. We had snow from Canajian border all the rest of the way so 3500 miles or 5670 km.
4 days including one day in -56 weather to change one stinking hose behind the water pump.
That was one day quicker than he would typically take in his 900 Turd-boat.
Minus 56F is fucking cold to get your hands wet.

Get it, put some Hakkas with studs and put the foot down "ger järnet för fan!“

'69 is the best year, stop in for a coupla days and we drop in a little hotter motor with 130 bhp and then the Sonett goes.

I agree - '69 is the best year to have. I always liked the Flip Front and big rear window.
Jan, I sent seller's info to you. Buy it or give to right buyer, I hate to see it going to waste...
