    Wow Steve that sucks! Looks like you have a well appointed kit. Good luck with the sale.
    Asking price would be helpful also.

    i'm honestly not sure what a fair price point would be? i'm in it with motor and trans about 20,000. i didn't buy it with selling in mind, and fully expected to keep it and finish and enjoy it for a long time.

    Steve,

    The rear suspension looks like Gordon Levy's 5 link, which is considered an upgrade from the 3 link. Good luck with the sale! Also, looks like the rear hatch has been retrofitted with the glass hatch.

    I would certainly think you should be able to get your money out of it. That's the price a complete kit, and you are already way ahead in parts and labor. Great value that somebody who is thinking about a Coupe should really give some thought.

    I bought the car from a long time friend and he has built several kits and said we have all of the needed docs to get title done? He has all of it at his place and I'm taking my bill of sale for motor and trans to him this next week.

    Thanks a bunch Garry! Garry knows I want to add a coupe to the stable and make it my next build. I think he also knows my affection for the 5-link rear suspension. This car has many of the things I would include in a coupe build if I was building it. It's priced great @ 20K and it should move quick. Just wish I had the money right now to grab it. Economy is just not strong enough for me to go out on a limb right now. Wish you the best for a quick sale.

    Well, I'm not Gordon (obviously) but sure looks like the same as what I have my Mk4 #7750, and I can confirm it's from Gordon.

    Steve-

    Congratulations on the sale! I know how hard it must be, but I hope this allows you to move on in a good position. Best of luck, and I hope you are able to work on another one some day! All the best.
