Dent:
One accident on the Carfax: In Fall 2006, a pickup truck clipped the driver’s door leaving a dent and front fender leaving scratches. The scratches polished out quite well, but remain visible up close. I preferred to leave the dent in the door, rather than compromise the original paint and welds with a body-shop door panel replacement and repaint. Check out the photos and see what you think. I took a lot of pictures to give a realistic view of the dent, since it is less obvious at some angles than others.

 

Reduced price to $9,950.

 

FWIW i live in Vernon, so if anyone is interested in the car that isn't local, I can give it a look over.

 

Hi Paimon, thanks

 

NP, good luck with sale!

Btw, we have an autocross event coming up in Hartford (cartct.com) in a few weeks. Might be a good place to come and try to find some people who might be interested in a nice track car.

 

Reducing to $8950 to better align with the market.

I'll try to show up at the September 8th CartCT autoX in Hartford

 

I'll be very interested in yours in a week or so if this potential buyer for my MSM comes through. Priced right in my target zone for a series1, good color, lightweight trim. That dent wouldn't bother me one bit.

I assume you are willing to take it for a compression test before sale?

 

I'll be there .
