Not too vintage MTB for sale: Gary Fisher Wahoo Disc

http://athensga.craigslist.org/bik/4209599975.html

Up for sale is a 15.5″ Fisher Wahoo Disc in showroom condition. This is a good, solid entry level MTB that we’re helping a friend sell for $550 or best offer. Drop us a line if you’re interested. This would make a great Christmas present!

Hard to find: New French style 5 3/4″ Round Amber Headlights

http://portland.craigslist.org/clc/pts/4205149643.html
Check out this posting on Portland’s Craigslist for sets of  5-3/4 inch round Amber headlights. The seller has multiple sets and $40 seems very reasonable. Nationwide shipping is $15 so we’re going to order up a few sets for that true vintage French fog light look!

Project of the week: 1959 BSA Super Rocket in Atlanta

http://atlanta.craigslist.org/nat/mcy/4158006688.html

First off, note that the picture above is not of the actual project BSA for sale but a stock photo of the same year and model. We found this ’59 Super Rocket on Craigslist in Atlanta with an owner that’s looking for good home for it. The Super Rockets feature a 650cc twin and were pretty reliable. At $1000 its worth a call to see what kind of shape this one is in.

UK Ford Import: 1960 Ford Anglia in South Carolina

http://atlanta.craigslist.org/eat/cto/4185721817.html

Tap your inner Harry Potter (actually it belonged to the Weasley family if we’re getting technical) with a good deal on a 1960 Ford Anglia. We found this Anglia on Craigslist in Greer, South Carolina and it looks pretty sound. The seller claims to have a spare fuel cell and extra fiberglass fenders which baffles the mind because the last thing we think of with a car like this is to take it racing. Either way this would be a fun in-town runner.

Another ’87 Audi GT in North Carolina

http://eastnc.craigslist.org/cto/4019197644.html

This is an interesting one that has us a bit stumped. As we’ve seen with the last post Audi GT’s aren’t that uncommon, especially in North Carolina for some reason. This 1987 GT has the earlier non-body painted bumpers and sports some very cool 80’s five-ring graphics. What has us puzzled on this one is the all digital instrument panel (see pictures in the post). As there aren’t any wheel flares we don’t surmise this to be an UR-Quattro but without seeing the backend its hard to be sure. The seller claims that its one of three imported for “rally races”. We don’t buy the import figures but every other 80’s Audi that we’ve come across uses standard VDO analog gauges. The engine may need a rebuild soon but for $1500 it may be worth a look. Find it above on Craigslist in Havelock, NC

1987.5 Audi GT

http://asheville.craigslist.org/cto/4125616524.html

We came across this Audi GT in Black Mountain, North Carolina. While the GT isn’t as desirable as it’s UR-Quattro sibling it none the less looks the part, especially with the latter euro bumpers that this wears. The interior looks near perfect as does the paint and trim. There isn’t a very long description but if you’re in the general vicinity it’d be worth a look. Find it above on Craigslist with an asking price of $4500.

1972 Porsche 914 in South Carolina

http://greenville.craigslist.org/cto/4094276126.html

We came across this well sorted ’72 914 in Greenville, South Carolina. The original 1.7 has been replaced with a 2.0 liter and the fuel injection swapped for a pair of Weber 40 idf downdrafts. Overall this looks like a very clean driver. The seller claims that there is some rust repair in the dreaded hell hole but that the rest of the car is rust free. There seem to be a lot of spare parts that accompany the sale. We like the 914 Fuchs and euro turn signals both front and rear that this one is sporting. Check it out on Craigslist for $6500 which is said to be negotiable. If anyone buys it let us know how it turns out!

1979 Alfa Romeo GT Veloce

http://atlanta.craigslist.org/atl/cto/4103035371.html

Here’s a ’79 Alfa GTV that we found just south of Atlanta. This body style, shared with the GTV6, is one of the best looking Alfas of the 80’s and this one looks great sans bumpers and with big round driving lights. The GTV features a twin cam 2.0 liter four with twin sidedraft Webers. Find it here on Craigslist from an owner that claims to have extensive experience with the marque.

Another Grey Market ’85 BMW e30

This time we’ve dug up a 320i in Charlotte, NC. This 1985 Grey Market e30 is a 4-door and has a bit more grunt than the 316 that we featured earlier today. The original 2.0l four that this car would have had has been replaced with an M50 straight six from a ’92 e30 and extensive work has been done to the suspension. The plaid interior, vintage BBS’s and manual transmission make this much more desirable in our book. Find it on Craigslist with an asking price of $8000.

Grey Market ’85 BMW e30 in Augusta, GA

http://augusta.craigslist.org/cto/4040938623.html

We always keep an eye out for grey market cars from the late 70’s into the 80’s. The bumper laws in the US at the time made many European cars look as though they had diving boards at the front and rear and emission laws resulted in lower compression and horsepower power plants. Here we’ve found a 1985 BMW e30 316 which was never officially imported Stateside. The 1.6l engine is carbureted and the engine bay looks remarkably like a 2002. While this is an automatic we love the small bumpers, cloth seats and steelies that make this car stand out from the more common 325’s of the period. Find this one on Craigslist on Fort Gordon in Augusta, GA for $3,000.
