Just a quick update since it's been 3 years since my last post on this one! The owner and I have kept in touch over the years. He got divorced in his 60's a few years ago and met a new lady on-line. They met and married in the Philippines and then got stuck there due to Covid-19. He just let me know that he is back in the US and is working on the L78. He is going to paint it himself (he says that he has done a lot of cars) and then he will call me to see if I am interested in it. Hopefully, that won't take another 3 years!

Where is it in the states ? Could one of us go look at it for you and maybe prod the owner to pull his head out ? I can get in a trunk and retrieve keys... a long stick with a bent friggen nail can reach from the back seat. It just isn't that hard, if he REALLY wants to sell it.
Buy it without paint, you aren't going to be happy with what he does anyway.

Thanks guys!. He got the keys out and found the title. I made him an offer without paint, but he is dead set on painting it! I’m not holding my breath that he will come through this time, but you never know!
Yes, it is in the registry. Rather not post where it is until I have a deal on it.

Thanks! The guy has never done anything intentional to screw with me, so I tend to give him the benefit of the doubt.

I guess my concern is that he will (a) repaint the car and then put it out there again to see what the market reaction is, or (b) he's just not at the point where he's going to do something. If you lived by him I wonder how he'd react to cold hard cash in his hands. Could buy a nice cruiser.
