I've never seen one in my life and I have the opportunity to own one for a VERY reasonable price. It's got rotted rocker's, but other than that, it's solid. It is the 18R-C engine, Chassis RT95. It's a coupe, it's SOLID other than the rockers. It's an auto, unfortunately.... and reads 60k on the odometer.
It definitely needs some work, and would be a project car. BUT, this is the first time I've EVER seen one in upstate NY and I have fallen in love. My question is, how rare are these and is it worth missing a months rent to get it? I have pics, but I don't want to show much until I actually get it lol. This is exactly what it looks like, only a resprayed blue:

ah that brings back memories, my best friend had one we called the sopwith camel becase it sounded like a ww1 fighter, sputtered, popped and missed like crazy. It was alway dependable though, we took it on a 500 mile road trip to see aerosmith and dokken.lol That was prolly before most of you were born.
one day we loaded up 7 people in it, and went on an adventure. Long story short the frisbee we had been throwing around ended up on the floorboard and wedged between the brake and the gas we went off a 10 foot drop where a bridge used to be, and went top side into a small river. It was pretty crazy but everyone survived except the sopwith camel.
