A little late with this, I know.  10:00AM, it's going on the block at
Greensboro Colosseum

I found out about it today because I was at the coliseum for a
corporate event.  It's the only time I ever wished for a smartypants
phone thingamagigie.

Registry entry here:

$50 to enter auction.  Register well before 10:00 in North Carolina
Greensboro Colosseum.

Confirming info after inspecting the car.  Difference from picture:
steering wheel medallion is missing.  Alpine stereo installed.  Spare
tire missing. Air conditioning not functional.  Stalls at idle.  No
tool kit.  No number on motor but paint is thick on motor.  Brake
fluid leak.  Original wheels not available.

Car is in excellent condition.  Paint is excellent.  No evidence of
rust.  No evidence of accident.  Interior carpet, stoock seats and
trunk insert carpet are excellent.  After market carbon mirrors.
Stock radiator.  Dip stick extension.  Performer intake.  Holley
carburetor.  SVO master cylinder and adapter.  Original gauges,
Aftermarket rear sway bar and brackets.  Stock exhaust excellent

Body Service 50905
Motor No. 03967
Build 2/73.  Titled 1973
Chassis 874 03967

This car is an 8 out of 10 because of missing items but could be 10
out of 10 without much effort at all.  Not sure about it mechanically.
 It looks clean and neat.  Wiring looks stock.  Even has stock relays
up front for fan control... ugly :)  Probably worth $35k to $45k but
depending on who showes up (there is a 308 GTS, a Carrera and a
Mondial as well) the car might go for 20 if there was little interest.
 Dealers show up for these events so I hope it gets a good price.
