SoCal 122s For Sale 120-130

Found two 122s for sale. 1968 and 1967. 68 needs a floor patch welded in, no trans and 67 is gutted.

Anyone interested in throwing in some money to buy them? I am still looking for various parts for my 122. With the two, one complete could be build and sold and the other could be used for parts.

Interesting seats but mine was cleaner ;-)

Good starting point for a full rebuild though!

You should have mentioned it when I got the 67, Tom! I wonder how good a swap that would be...

SoCal 122s For Sale 120-130

tdskip likes old cars.talked to him about selling an MGB to him an know he bought a Ford Capri. Buying cars is easy getting them on the road is heavy lifting. The 68 is an auto to stick unfinished. i am looking for a late 122 Dana rear end and would get financially involved if one was available also have a 4 speed to throw in. I'am not too far from tdskip and could weld the floors in but just got under va half doz. cars and won't go back.

SoCal 122s For Sale 120-130

Hi guys - I decided to lay low on selling these here. I didn't want to abuse the spirit of the forum by talking about potentially selling the cars. I actually had a chance to talk to a couple of folks here about the cars, thanks for everyone's patience. Between my work schedule and really wanting the shell to end up back on the road it was probably a bit frustrating waiting to hear back.

I am VERY happy to say that a fellow Brickboard'er is the new owner of the 1967 122s. I'm delivering her to NorCal this week - but will let the new owner step forward is he/she decides to.

As was pointed out, I'm a total sucker for interesting old cars and needed to juggle the fleet a bit. I recently picked up TR4A IRS, a pre-SMOG X1/9, black plate TR4a and the Capri race car. I was expecting to sell both 122s, but just couldn't do it. I couldn't see myself without one. So I guess I'm hooked. I need to finish a TR6 and TR4A IRS build, but after than the Volvo will be getting some attention. I reserve the right to pick at her a bit to move things along however :-)

Any yes, buying them is the easy part.


The TR4A IRS is going back together. Fortunately she has original paint still, and while needing attention, I can't mess around with her too much without ruining her.

The Capri is an actual race car from the late 70's and early 80's, totally built. Rough around the edges, as a lived in race car should be, or at least a low dollar one anyway. I just finished getting her road legal so she's good for now. If you haven't driven a healthy one of these track one down - they are a total hoot.

Here is the X1/9, I scored a 1500 engine and 5 speed so those are getting rebuild while I sort everything else out. She's actually very solid, long term SoCal car too. Was in the process of being converted to a race car so I'm going to leave as much lightness in as possible.

This TR4A came out of the blue, how often does a 60k mile black plate TR4A with O/D show up on Craigslist 5 minutes away? No engine but as it turns out I have a spare.

Anyway, enough from me for now, bit since you kind of asked I thought I'd lay the madness out...

SoCal 122s For Sale 120-130

That's a great looking Capri.I owned a TR4 w/Chevy 350 and narrowed Ford diff I had only limited control over it when driven hard and too many others. I recently bought a great looking 544 with a blown engine that brought my fleet to 6 cars and forced me to be realistic about what i had time and money to really work on and enjoy driving and you will rarely see a profit on a sale.The profit or loss is directly proportional to the length of time you own and work on a car. I owned the 544 for 1 mo. and double my investment I sold my MGB GT which I owned and repaired for 12 mo. and lost $500. Anyway good luck from a recovering old car junky.also check out a British mag.

Thanks! I've found that the more attached I get the more I lose on the car.

We'll have to meet and drive the Ortega Highway or Palomar some time.
