-The design was by Pininfarina of Italy. Very unique 2 door hatchback, rear window is stationary from factory.

-Overall this is a great car that looks different than anything else. Easy to locate. buy parts and restore or maintain. Part of the reason for selling is because I just don’t have time to build it and need to thin my collection.

-I purchased this car in 2012 from a collector, where the car was stored indoors for decades. During my ownership it has stayed in a climate controlled facility in Louisville, KY where it is titled clean and clear in my name.

-Inspections are encouraged and welcome at the storage facility in Louisville 40299 M-F 9-5 by appointment. Thanks for looking.

-Not interested in trades, can provide a shippers information I've used in the past. Will sell overseas and have a loading dock for shipping containers. Reserve is low, plan to buy if you bid!
