It sounds like you got into a slight accident on the right side...how bad? Is the idle issue you mentioned the same as before or is this something different? Do you have the original steering wheel around somewhere? What are you looking to get for it?

it just so happens that a guy backed into it while i was parked, into the same spot i fixed when i first bought it. he only hit my headlight glass thank god, the damage is the same you saw at the meet minus a headlight glass but i have a replacement, though it is more pitted than the new one on the other side so im debating on what to do. i dont have the original wheel sorry, the nardi is much better for a 280ce imo. the idle issue is the same, it has gotten worse but i havent driven it much since march and attribute it to that. id like to get $2500 i forgot to mention it has a dull plastic dash cap. i have a very good replacement but because of the labor involved i havent replaced it yet. all these extra parts i havent put in yet make me sound real lazy but i really have done a large amount of work to it.

Grrr, If I wasn't on the road for another 3 weeks, I would really be tempted to buy!

Rust on the car? Trades?

rust isnt bad, one small bubble on each rear fender, frame is good. mostly surface rust underneath because the rust coating has started to come off under the floorboards. i have fixed a lot of areas that rust on most 123's, like the front rocker panels.
not so sure about trades, im really looking for a winter car that i can drive but neglect. i have a bad habit with buying more parts than necessary.
