The car is on eBay, go to
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220169735052
to look at what I have seen.
What I know:
1. Car is located in a lot near Wharton, TX. Small town SW from Houston and home of the "Teepee Motel" (that's not made up, either).
2. The seller is the South end of a Northbound Horse. Some months back he offered a 780 for $2000 Buy-It-Now. Since the austion showed the car in Houston, I emailed him to ask him if I could look at it, and asked for his location. He answered with "Go get some other sucker to kick tires on" meaning that you must buy it in order to look at it.
3. View the auction, look at the pictures, choose one that shows both rear tail lights, enlarge it and you will see that the badging is "940 GL".
4. The abovementioned 780 was re-listed several times, with the most recent Buy-It-Now price of $700.
What I don't know:
1. Did the PO put a 940 trunk with wing on his 740? Seems more likely that the seller either doesn't know or doesn't care that the car isn't a 740.
Wharton is a small enough town that the lot is either visible from a street or known to a local person that it should be easy to find.
If you, as a Houston-area (Austin or SAT?) BB member, choose to go look, please email me and perhaps I will join you. Meet you at Baker Street Pub, Sugar Land Town Square??
If I recall correctly, Wharton is on US 59, and Sugar Land is en route and fairly convenient to the West Sam Houston Tollway and thus to me in CYpress.
But I've been wrong before. At least once. Ask me.
Regards,
Bob
