Is the front fender flare in the right spot?

Remove the wing, but keep the paint. I don’t know why, but I like it. if it’s running, $10k for that car could be a great deal.

Hack mechanic, good intentions, serious engine bay rust, unless they are using light shining through camo.

That 80s Eddie Van Halen guitar are called urban camo is not my thing, also hides lots to stuff by breaking up the site lines. Thus the reason you use it on stuff you want people to be a bit confused about.

Crack pipe, most likely burn to the ground.

Battery shelf rusted out, not even fixed, then you zip tie fuel lines to it for a easy spout to put all your fuel lines.

Poor wire crimp choices

Spark plugs wires must have been rubbing so you add extra to keep them from asking out.

They spent lots of time hanging with their cheap VW friend who said I can fix that.

At least it has center pull linkage, that is rusted.

If it is your crack pipe go smoke the SOB.

This was someones crack pipe, and I built one for a customer back in the 90s, but it did not have all the shoddy I can't even call them a mechanic. work, nope, even hack does not do the culture justices... I am at a lost of words (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Sounds like you might be on the fence on this one.

Flares are most likely bondo and kitty hair glued on with a few aluminum rivets to keep them in place for the good of the cause.

@thelogo you ever been out on the Vegas strip at like 7 am. I don't drink, smoke, or hook up with the local girls, but I do go out each morning and walk now, my one knee is to bad to run. The strip has a wonderful odor to it about 7am. It is before all the tourist are out, but after the majority of the drunks had last call. What you smell is regret, shame, bad decisions all mixed with public urination and vomit.

I have a feeling this car would smell exactly the same.

If my two reviews are not enough to change your mind, go cuddle up behind the dumpster to keep the wind off your pipe it makes it easier to lite.

We all could be wrong and it is a great car, but I think it is being advertised in the spirit of PT Barnum

Oh and Eddie Van Halen might not paint his guitars well, but I approve of his collection of cars. Lambo Miura, 911 GT3 RS a couple of Audi R8s have all graced his garage. And he does not paint them in red with white and black lines.

10k probably not a steal. The rust should be the deciding factor. Cool wrap, but could be lipstick on a pig. Hopefully not.

I'd check out the rust, there is obviously some, and like cockroaches, it's not the ones you see....... There is always more.
