Anyone see the marti yet? I sent the seller a text, see if I can take a look at it this weekend. What do guys think of the 7.5K?

Ya never know if the price is outrageous, right on, or a bargain until you do a first hand inspection. Way too little info to make a determination.

Would require an 'up close & personal' inspection before deciding.

Seller did not even post pictures so we could at least see the actual condition of the car

Sounds like a really friendly guy based on how the ad is written. No pics, classic.

A conversion to a 4 speed or a Tremac 5 speed is very easy. I would do the 5 speed if I was you! The old 3 speeds kinda suck IMO.

Arlie or I can step you through it.
