JSM Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 I have a line on this car. It's pretty complete. The driver door skin is done wrong (sticks out 1/2" past proper body line), has some dents (chunks two) in some of the fiberglass on the rocker panels. The conversion was done back in the 90's I believe. The other thing is it has some holes in the floor. I can't stand the wheels and I really don't like the rollbar. After looking through reaction reasearch site, I know there is some serious money tied up in this. Plus side it has coilovers, 4 wheel disc with proportion valve, running on a TEC II. Anything to look for on this conversion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasper Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) If it's structurally sound, buy it! Edited July 13, 2012 by jasper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSM Posted July 14, 2012 Author Share Posted July 14, 2012 Yeah I bought it. I actually paid $3400! She's a bueaty at 20'! As ruff as I am on paint jobs I'm actually okay with it for now. First step is to get it the FP down from 45 psi at idle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Six_Shooter Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 I wouldn't buy it, only because I have no desire to own a Vella Rosa. The price sounds pretty good though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C Pierre Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Looks like a great deal! A lot of work went into that car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSM Posted July 16, 2012 Author Share Posted July 16, 2012 Looks like a great deal! A lot of work went into that car. I agree and I'm glad it wasn't mine! He actually removed almost all of the rear sheet metal as well, tubed the entire rear end and made custom inner fenders. Suppossedly he got a divorce over all the time he spent on the car.

LOL, my wife asked are you going to keep this one!? I think I may, but I get such a kick out of buying and selling. It's almost as much fun as driving! No A/C or heat! It's great at night and early morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
