Holy lipstick on a pig...

But, but....it's a 2 time trophy winner AND the wheel covers match the interior. Awesome.

gee wally, no bids yet?

well beaver, some people don't run to buy dirty cars with crappy, pieced together upholstery, filthy trunks and a host of other defects, especially when their owner is a little deluded.

so wally, you don't think this car won two trophies?

not on this planet.

I'll tear up the deposit for you if you'd rather have this one. I understand. :D

Wow, they even glued a bling-gold emblem to the dash. :eek:

That poor car. It could still be saved, but it would need a lot. Plus the 280 drinks practically as much gas as a 560, so why not have the V8....

What?? That's what we call a West Virginia Show Car!

JimFreeh 01-25-2010 07:10 AM

I don't even know where to begin....:eek:

Wait, yes I do, look at the pic of the open door. Isn't that bondo smeared all over the inside lower door frame around the rubber seal?

How did I miss that? I grew up not very far from Clendenin WV and don't recall seeing many fancy 'uns like that.
