Only bad is the clutch slips a little in 2nd and 3rd gears under hard acceleration. It was suggested to me today that the clutch issue mightbe as simple as a bleeding of the hydraulics, I cannot confirm this asagain I am not a mechanic. I do have a box of additional upgrade parts for thecar. Included is another clutch set up, oil cooler, 4 point belts forthe passenger seat as well as the original 3 point self retracting beltsfor the drivers side and a host of other small bits and pieces. I haveattached another picture above to show some of the extra parts included.
Stuck in a corporate rental apartment, losing my indoor storage in SC where we are currently located. Car is ultra aggressively priced to sell for this reason and this reason only.
June 11th 2014:
An Ebay member emailed me a question about the clutch asking if the car was drivable at all (he left his number and direct email and asked that I not respond with it quoted).
My response was a resounding YES!!!!, the car is drivable 100%, and that the slippage mentioned above was minimal and only in 2-4th gears on heavy acceleration. The car is reliable and could be driven cross country as it sits. I just believe in full disclosure which is why I made mention of it above in the first place. There is nothing to hide, and I welcome anyone to come see it up close and in person, or send in a company to do a PPI (Pre-Purchase Inspection).
