Turbo Optima Craigslist find- project: return to stock

[GoMachV]

I originally found this and posted it up for the other Portlanders. The more I thought about it the more it bugged me. Just too good of a deal- so I offered him less and he took it. Met up, handed him a $100 bill and this is what I have:

Oh, and a never used Tony Nessinger I loved those motors!

So happy the original tires are in good shape and the speed control parts are all there
Hope the enamel paint comes off easy

Nice score and I love those old school pit boxes.

That's a nice return for your $100 bill. I actually like the paintjob, reminds me of the Swedish hockey jersey.

Def in good shape for a hundred bucks. Looks like some useful spares and hardware.

Congrats on a good deal

Very nice car Jeff! Should be an easy restoration.

[RichieRich]

Now this is a pretty good score. Looks like everything is in order AND an awesome pit box. You should restore that too! Sand it down and give it a nice coat of stain.

[GoMachV]

The more I look at the out box the more I like it. It's very 80's. The car is being stripped now, so far it's in great shape! Found all the speedo parts and looks like even all the hardware is there.
