"No matter how one relates to such a vehicle phenomenon, this specimen is carefully, consciously, and qualitatively executed."

Description

The first owner, who carried out the build, registered the car as early as 1991 and had it on the road the following year. The exact time it took to build the car is unknown, and we haven't asked the creator, Sture, who is now 92 years old. Perhaps it's possible to get a story from Sture, but some of the answers may also be found among the 6-7 binders and folders of documentation. Today, the car is being sold by the estate of the latest owner, who bought it from Sture when he auctioned the car on Bilweb Auctions 2 years ago. The car is technically based on a Chevrolet Camaro with a proven GM 350 (5.7 liter) V8 engine and a three-speed automatic transmission. The latest approved inspection was done on May 3, 2022.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    Easy to start, easy to drive, and smoothly functioning. American proven technology that is reliable and easy to service. Parts are easy to find and often inexpensive compared to many other aspects of the automotive hobby.

  • Interior condition:

    A neat and tidy interior in a kit car build after over 30 years is not so common. Here, however, it is completely intact, clean, and well-maintained.

  • Exterior condition:

    Still presentable and representative of the car type. A white well-built replica from the late eighties/early nineties, inspired by an iconic Mercedes from the thirties, is today a sort of representative of a past trend. The soft top is intact and clean, and functions well, albeit a bit cumbersome to fold down and up.

  • General condition:

    Time has treated the car well, but it is probably primarily thanks to the builder and the first owner. A build in a well-maintained condition that only needs to be cared for equally well to maintain its allure.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
