Hi;
I have read over all the warnings, etc. for what you should look for-I guess if I had to do it over again I would have been a little more careful buying the the 280se I have now.......................
But that is a different story.
I owned a 60 220sb for about 3 years back in the mid 70's. It was owned by some nice 'hippy types' at the time who put me up at their house until I could get the papers for the trip to my college dorm. I absolutely loved that car. It rode like you were sitting in your living room, drove smoothly, and got decent mileage on Hi-Test gas. If you have 30K to spend on a $500.00 car then just enjoy the fact that in prime condition you probably wouldn't get the ride for twice the price in today's generic automobile environment.
Sit on top of the hood in the lotus position and spend some time there.
Afterwards, ask yourself if you and this 61 220sb can live together!
