Not quite as weird as the Renault Caravelle I posted earlier, but not by much. Not mine, not affiliated.

I can't help but wonder where the New England Tin Worm has burrowed its way into the car. From the (two low resolution) photos posted, it's kinda clean.

That's gotta be pretty close to being one of the last ones. Weren't they being sold by Malcolm Bricklin by then?

If it makes you feel any better, I just realized the posting is over a month old. It may have been sold by now.

After 1982, both the X1/9 and Spider 2000 were marketed by Bricklin's IAI (International Automotive Importers). Gone from the world after 1988.

If that car was in Fl, I would buy it ... I always regret not buying one in the mid 90s when I had a chance. I think that was the only one I saw down here too.

I feel similarly about a 6k$ Judge convertible I passed on right out of high school because it had a six pack under the hood and I was worried about gas mileage. What an idiot.

on a related note, you can find em if you watch CL enough, but the fall into two categories $$ and rusty.
