Should be easy to get back into shape, eh?

Poor thing.

What a mess. The inside of that car looks like my 10 year old's room.

can somebody rip the pictures off, and put them on a photobucket for me? Our schools filtering program hates ebay

It sounds from here to be a great car that just needs a little TLC

Wow!

The 83 I just sent to the crusher looked like it belonged on the show room floor compared to that one. And that was after I pulled everything we could use off the car. Man, what a pile of worthless junk. They would probably have difficulty getting a bid started at over a $1.99

Why even bother trying to sell it? Starting bid $199??? They should be paying someone to haul it off and do them a favor let alone try to sell it.

The seats look like they're in good shape compared to the rest of the car's rotten apple appearance. Too bad, red/black combo looks nice in my opinion.

I'm thinking of sending the question: "If I fly out to pick it up, do you think it could be safely driven back to Missouri?"

I also like the 'no warrantee' line. As if I'd buy it, and then claim, "Woah, you gotta take this back, turns out the shifter is a little loose. I ain't gonna be stuck with no lemon."

That thing doesn't even look good enough for parts... Everything I see is damaged or rusted.. Oh well, another one bites the dust.

peace,
sam
