Anyone know where to look on the engine, tranny and rear end to match up the VIN #s to the car? Any info is appreciated!

I should also add as an update: One of our local SSP guys has family in Denver and is trying to work out a deal to save it. It was converted to a 5 speed at one point (which is what he prefers as well). So while not 100% accurate, could be a good fit for his needs and be able to be saved and brought back. He's working on the details of what can come with the car, price, etc. So keeping my fingers crossed that he closes the loop.

Back of the engine where the lower intake valley is above the bellhousing. Basically the flat area inbetween the heads were the little cork gasket goes. The one on the transmission is on the side ofthe case on an edge. I think it is where the transmission and bellhousing bolt together that flange.

Any update?

One of our local PCSD guys was trying to make a save for the car, but has a history of dragging his feet to jump on anything. The seller and he were talking - and working through what came with the car, etc. We have a donor car lined up here in WA for the driveline from a WSP, hood, door, etc.

Drawback is that he's out of room, and doesn't want to take the time to pull parts from one car to the next. And the work involved with saving it. But also knows how rare these are - so he's on the fence.

I think the shipping $$ is also factoring in. Will be about $700 on top of the cost of the shell to bring it back up.

I would be all over this, but I also am out of room, and the wife is not keen on my having a 4th SSP - especially a project like this.

Really do hope someone can save it. Is one of only 2 left out there in private hands that we have not saved. And the maroon color is pretty cool!

That sounds like a great donor car for this PCSD roller!

Same car - sounds like the new ad is the guy's son. I got a call from Brett (Seller) last week that a guy was coming to buy it to build a race car with it. The prospective buyer just needed the front clip

He offered to keep the buck tags from the car if it sold and mail them to me to keep them as part of the historic record.

The local guy that had shown interest pulled out. No one else locally wants it or has $$/time for the project. I wish I could save it, but don't have the time to devote to it with all my other projects.

Sad to see it go, but at least we know what happened to it. And at some point, can't save them all. :(

Sad to see another SSP disappear...
