I'm now the proud owner of a 164. The lady wanted NZ$1500 (US$1000) for it, and ended up giving it to me for free! She could not find a buyer, and thought it's better if I take it than if a wrecker takes it. It's got 111k mi on it. Leather seats (passanger does not even have bottom pillow), but getting it running only requires replacing the fuel lines. Four years ago it was perfect when the original owner passed away, but the young lady that bought it did not look after it at all. Will need a new paint job as well, and minor rust removal. So now I've got a '71 144S, '74 164, and '88 240. A picture of the 164 is hosted at the link below:

The rust is on the other side of the car, and the 144 is nervously looking around the corner to see what's going on!

Have fun...
