Dad forwarded this ad to me and I'm not interested, but somebody here may be.

Looks like it could be a fun car, but it may have been in the wrong hands for a bit too long.

Why would a coolant switch cause it to not get spark?

Clearly the seller isn't the sharpest tool in the shed...I agree the coolant switch has nothing to do with spark, but there's a decent pile of parts to start with.

Perhaps this guy expects autocorrect to proofread his stuff and means crank sensor?

Coolant temp sensor on the water neck can cause all sorts of weird issues with these cars if they read "open" and the wires frequently fail right at the plug.

Been there, done that.

Im sure this has been asked before, but why would you narrow the problem down to something that you are claiming is a simple fix and not take care of it? I see it all the time on Craigslist. "All this car needs is a 99 cent part but I don't want to mess with it. But I promise it runs perfect!"

shaved keyholes and a 1 piece front end?

In reply to westsidetalon:

It's a one piece front end with one giant piece missing from it.

These cars are impossible to find any more. I have a lead on a local one. I have been after the owner to sell it for over two years now.
