Shouldn't you lay off the caps lock key, and use complete sentences?

People who live in glass houses should not throw stones, and should also get dressed in the basement.

looks like a candidate for graveyard carz?

that red Coronet in the promo ended up and best of show and was a complete, hacked together POS.  about 6:20 in is their delivery driver, and the Challenger shots are the black one they dropped off in trade for the coronet. 

we spent the better part of three weeks straightening out the coronet.  they hacked up the hood for a ramcharger setup and hood pins, and it looked like a three year old did both.  no tail panel lettering, holes filled in everywhere, frankenstein construction, a horrid interior--you name it.  they sprayed the seat belt buckles and other parts with spray paint, and didn't bother to mask anything off.  the rear main seal holder wouldn't seal, and there was a weeping oil galley on the motor.  the steering gearbox was installed improperly, the transmission wouldn't shift, the throwout bearing ground...the list goes on.

what a sad car. i had NO IDEA the car was local to me. i wish it was buildable. if i was one in favor of rebodying, i'd snatch it up, but i'm not.

[dpm68]

So please call me uninformed, but why would anyone buy a car in that condition? This doesn't seem like a charity, and it can't be rebuilt, can it? What gives?

[68pplcharger]

Pretty sad condition for that bird. The title is also a salvage. I was curious, so I called the guy and inquired about the price. He wants $10,000 for a rusted, burned, and melted lump of metal with no title.

it sold for 10k and is headed to one of the dakota's

[dpm68]

10k? Oh lordy.

[dpm68]

Oh, and why?

[Mike DC]

 
There has gotta be a rebody attempt coming for that VIN in the future.  I don't see why else anyone would pay that kind of cheese for the hulk. 

Maybe they think they can sit on it a couple years until the story cools off and then sell a rebody to someone who hasn't fully researched the car's backstory?
