I don't have a need for any parts or the means to buy the whole car, so my opinion ain't worth much, but I agree with spanks that this car looks too nice to part out.

I have no interest in the doors, headliner, or steering column. I want the seats, dash, rear speaker shelf, speedometer, gauges, and hub caps. I don't need door panels or anything to do with the doors themselves.

Or alternatively, a rough '74 could give up it's front clip to make this one a Blumo. That would seem to be less work, anyway.

If someone wants to buy it and part it out I am good for buying, doors, headliner, steering column and other trim that LV does not need. I would be willing to travel to whoever has it to turn the wrenches to remove my own parts. I just absolutely do not have the time to help negotiate a deal with the seller, arange shipping, and store the car.

They'll come down in price in a little time. Then, I'll make an offer and the rest will be for sale here shortly thereafter.

Certified speedo on a '76 Royal ? No. Clone maybe? Or, a misidentified '77?

Or swapped fuel door. I've seen that on one car before.

I emailed them and asked for a few more pictures; no response. I'm not committing to the initial buy without more to work on unless someone can work out a reasonable shipping cost. Really, all I want are the dash pad, lower door pieces, seats, and seat belts.
The tan column would be great for a blumo, though.

They've been trying to sell this car for 3 months and have only come down $50.00 from their original asking price...
I'd still be interested if they had sent me the additional pictures that I requested, but it has to come down $800.00 before I'd feel comfortable enough to buy it sight-unseen.

I'm starting to doubt that this car exists, but I also question the potential profit to be gained from running a scam for this type of car.
