Unless this has a trashed interior, someone needs to look it over.

Finally got a call back... it seems they now want to ebay the car (???). I told them to let me know if they'd like to sell outright, and that I'd be interested. No reply (as yet). I think they're dangling the carrot on that website and hoping for bigger $ on ebay. I sure as hell can't figure out what they want to do with the car after talking to the guy. He didn't seem too enthused about selling it -- when I asked about the body, he said there were"dings" and "faded paint," and that it was "fair." I asked about rust, and he said yeah, what you'd expect for a "fair" condition (whatever that means). I pressed and asked if that meant no rust-through, and he said "it's not rotted out." Again, whatever that means.

If you have a buddy who'd be willing to check it out, I'd be willing to cover his costs for doing so if I can get these guys to commit to honoring the price in their ad.
