No pics, not sure if I've posted this yet but the add seems a bit different than the usual. Perhaps worth a call. Sell me some parts if you buy it! (finders fee)

I went to check this one out yesterday. Good grief...

Basically it is landlocked in a backyard under piles of boxes and behind another project car. It looks like it has not moved in years. How anyone anyone is supposed to "drive it HOME" is beyond me.

The rockers are completely rotten, the sunroof has been replaced (gee, wonder why) and so has the trunk lid. There are old boxes of various parts, apparently mostly rubber, and the engine is some shade tree mechanic's abandoned project.

$5k to $10k at best. But he was kind enough to warn me before I drove down there that he is firm on his $20k price...

cropping...

I love the creative (cardboard?) cropping on pics 2 and the last one...(like pictures of Marie Osmond after Nutriwhatever to "shed" fifty pounds...) Pic 2 is great; tire now looks round, and rocker is blocked...sorry you wasted a trip, but thanks for doing the recon.

Sometimes you have to take one for the team...
