Checking eBay right now, there are three Sterlings for sale right now! Let’s start with this conender for the worst paint job (ok, it’s far from the worst, but I really hope this is just some primer issue or something), item #4634666497, an engineless Solid Sterling currently sitting well below its reserve. I’m guessing it won’t sell this time around…
Then there’s this awesome classic looking 1976. It’s built on a beetle transmission with a build bus engine, as well as Karman Ghia front disc breaks, and more. I love this one, it’s really gorgeous, and currently ending in one day and is currently at about $5,000. Item #4632774902:
Then there’s this old beater Sterling that’s at $2000 with two days left. It’s definitely a project car (although very do-able), but what makes it interesting is that it appears to be built around not a VW, but around a Corvair chassis. Looks like it’s been sitting in a field for about five years? Item #4633247100.
But it’s cool what you can still find at a low price! Sure, you can pay $90,000 for a used first-gen Diablo, but with $10,000 to spend, you can do some amazing things in the kit car game.
Please if you will, email me with the production year of the Red Sterling posted above. I have always Loved the rebodies. but I don’t recall ever seeing a Sterling with the Front open like the Red one above or the side gills. Were these features on a specific year, or was this a Custom modification. Also, I know with out a doubt that I have seen a Sterling with a T-Top Canopy, but I don’t ever see it talked about. Did I in fact dream this or did Sterling make a T-Top Canopy. Please if you will send me correspondence via my email: Ejackson71@hotmail.com
In advance, Thank You!
