If you fear the insurance, get a mkII. Non turbo, low displacement, low value, it's like $30/month for full coverage on my 82. :icon_bigg
There are ATLEAST 2 red mkII's that I know of, a nice one, and the one w/ 18k miles on it. As far as a white one goes... all I know of is my old one, and I haven't seen that piece in a LOOOOONG time (probably about a year or so).
I think it's in really good shape other than that. And I figured you'd want to cut those pieces out.
Jason... I have some horrible news.
My dad left, and we have no idea where the hell he is. And I'm not even joking.
