Does this car look familar to anyone?
« on: February 28 2017, 04:26:42 PM »
I haven't seen this car before.  My buddy go a hold of the guy who said he is selling it for a friend.  The car is in Greece. :rolleyes;   Sounds like a scam to me.

So owner is in Winterpeg & car is in Greece? You would think if your selling it here that your chances of making a sale are much higher if people can go look at it? Also looks like some stickers on it from the door pic?

No, he is selling it for a friend whom apparently will be moving back to the Peg and is deciding whether to bring the car back with him.

Did you see the way the speedo is hooked up? :hmm

Looks like it had a lot of money thrown at it once upon a time (early 2000s) but now is just a hulk looking for a home and some serious help.  The engine is in pieces - but assuming it is complete? I'd go $8-9K - mostly because it isn't painted resale-black.

I like how it's mint condition but needs an engine built.


I think my idea of mint and the authors aren't quite the same.

I think he meant mint in color. :icon_lol:   The door jams aren't painted and the interior looks like a mess.

You're awful generous. That turd is worth $ 1500, maybe.
