There's not many early Esprit Turbos left, and bastardizing a classic car seems like it should be one of the deadly sins. I agree.

Having said that, if I had the dime, the time and the space I'd be all over this Esprit. I was born in '72 and the sight of this Esprit brings me back to those wonderful years when they were new, I was young and nothing else tickled my sports car fancy more than than these early 80's Esprits. What a beautiful car! It'd be a crime in my mind to do anything other than restore it to factory specifications. I see way too many old Jeep CJ's and glorious FJ-40's ruined (in my mind) when folks feel the need to go Frankenstein and cram a Chevy 350 in them. Enjoy them for what the engineers made them to be I say. I’m a total slut for anything Jeep Wrangler or CJ and every meager penny I earn goes towards my 2000 TJ.
