Don't have much to add (price seems fair for the amount of work that will be required, don't forget that very nice examples without any current work needed are selling well below $3,000 here on the West Coast, probably the same there), except to note the RARITY OF THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION. If you don't buy, be sure to post the name of the wrecker so all those folks who've coveted Larry Bible's 5-Speed 300E can have a shot at it.
