Vehicle Specifics

We ask for a backstory, and here is what the owner shared:

This Roadster was part of a probate process and became bricked.

The Battery Pack is beyond recovery and a new Tesla ESS Main will put this Roadster back on the road.

It is a fine example of the Very Orange paint scheme.  The original factory applied PPF had deteriorated, and the Gruber Motors team
painstakingly removed all traces exposing a well preserved paint job.

It is being sold with some imperfections like the partially missing passenger front mud flap, a scrape down to primer in the same area, and a cracked front clip just behind the front license plate.
There are some cosmetic issues in the interior, all fully restorable.

If you are looking for a Very Orange restoration project, this 40K mile Roadster is ideal.

UPDATE

Some were curious what caused the car to get bricked, which is important since after a ESS Main Battery replacement, often what caused the car to not charge, needs to be repaired for additional cost.

Here is what the family updated:

The reason for the dead car was most certainly a lack of charging.
My sister drove it after my dad’s stroke to put it in the garage and it ran fine. We didn’t charge it after that.
