$33,000 seems like a steal. Who’s the lucky person?

Only issue is you have to be 5’8” to drive it! Does look like a great buy!

Where was this one hiding on Mud? Only know of @40justin ‘s SWB in Colorado but his is a removeable top and a ‘66. Would love to see the build pics.

Hey @whitey45 whats wrong with being 5’8”?!!!

I hope so. A fully restored 45 like that for that price is awesome. I am 5’8” and I don’t like driving my LPB with the top on but does not make me not love it.

Nothing is wrong with 5’8” or less if you want to drive a Formula 1 car.

Lewis Hamilton: 174 cm
Sebastian Vettel: 175 cm
Valtteri Bottas : 173 cm

Michael Schumacher: 174 cm

........................... I could drive a Formula One race car too

I am just jealous of folks that can fit in a shorty, at 6’2” never been able to own one. Somehow I have been driving a 45 lpb for 25 years, but now have my Troopy which affords plenty of legroom!
