The dragons are the best part! Would definitely put fear into the hearts of your adversaries.

Yes, the dragons are bitchin'!
This is the Jackie Chan would use!

Wow that's a pimped out camera. Needs under body lights though.

Ditch the dragons and I'd buy it

Crikey, it's like with those bubbas that turn vintage WW2 jeeps into monster trucks.
Looks real snazzy, but I can't help but feeling sorry for the IIIa.
So, who of us is going to rescue it? 😉

Lens and finder not included. Deal is off.
By the way, I wish sellers would stop putting lenses and accessories on the camera and then insert in the middle of a huge babble of 20 run-on sentences of ALL-CAPS text, "lens/accessories not included."

Where are the flame-throwers and the spoiler ???
😀
Lake pipes ?
A brief moment of serious observation... this is the first time I've actually examined a MOOLY, and I noticed that even though the motor case is marked "E. Leitz Wetzlar", on the bottom, the latch is marked "Open" and "Close", rather than "auf" / "zu" or both....
😕
I've often entertained the pipe-dream of buying rodded & chopped antique cars and (very publicly) restoring them to original, factory condition...
Wonder what kind of hew & cry that would elicit from the "Good Guys" ????
😎
Well, I guess I should go grab my "beater" 1934 Leica III, jump in my unrestored '41 De Soto jalopy, and go terrorize the community....
Cheers !

Watch that step!
Hmmm I never have been a fan of the "short" housing "armed" MOOLY`s but one with STAMPED Asterisk 🙂 - is
*pretty rare in the collectors world*
I wish I had a more speedly access to records, then I could perhaps, shed more light on it`s history........cuz with a three digit number this makes this a very early possible - pre/production model MOOLY Late 1937/Early 1938.
It`a $1,000-$1,200 camera combo "as-is"
.................use the IIIa for parts and hook the MOOLY up to a "minty" 38' IIIb and make what I`ve always called
"A Heinrich Hoffmann Special"
- just add a "prewar" Elmar f3.5/35 wide with a correct Black FLQOO hood and a "Flat Nose" VIOOH finder you have a BEAUTIFUL package that would work as good as it looks too 😀
Hmmm I`d go after this if I already had the Mint IIIb.....I just don`t want to start collecting pre 1940 Leica stuff....uggh!!! I have enough 1940 to 1946 items now!!!!!! 🙄
Tom
ps: I`m still holding on to that dream of finding the ultimate Leica "paperweight" in some deceased Army Officer`s estate - a $200
mint boxed
MOOLY C K Grey there, ready to go on my 43'........that`s the only motor I think I want 😉
