The car is in Seattle, it belonged to my uncles neighbor who recently passed away. I last saw the car about 15 years ago, and it was in amazing condition then and apparently it hasn't been driven in about a decade.
When I saw it all those years ago, I told him.... if you ever want to sell it, have John call me! Well it's in the estates hands now and I've made my intentions known, just waiting to see if they give me a fair number.
Cosmetically it's apparently ultra clean, but a decade of sitting could be expensive mechanically.... but not Ferrari sitting for a decade expensive. And I am sure there's hundreds of leathery old mechanics that would kill to once over the car.
The Javelin was such a underrated car. I've always said, if you could define the 70's aesthetic with a car.... it's the 71-74 Javelin.
