http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...549675958&rd=1 Could I be wrong?

 

wow.... just wow... i can't believe it made it that far... and i can't believe a dude flew here to buy it...

 

yep. seen it once or twice. sucks that the guy didn't do anything with it.


guess it was in better shape than some others thought!

 

He says he has $1500 in it in the Q&A section of the auction. Didn't it end up at $500 when Jammers auctioned it? Maybe he's counting airfare and gas from when he picked it up.

 

Jeez it's in cali now heh.

 

the motor maybe... i figured ben did his usual and thrashed on the motor, hence why i'm surprised it made it that far... and really, that car is totalled as it sits right now...

 

Removed All TAR (46lbs)

muhahahaaaaaa..........

 

BEN

 

that car actually ran really well. i set up the carb and it pulled hard for a stockport 12a.
the guy selling it now just copied and pasted bens original description...lol

what is that legall ---->(The engine and intire car has 85,967 original miles. New odometer reset to 0. ??

 

i believe it was a salvaged title.

 

Yeah But Rreseting The Od To O
Thats Fraud

 

Not in WA state, I don't think. On anything over 10 years old, the odometer is disregarded during title transfers. I suppose it might be considered unethical in a general sense, but it's not like that particular car is being considered for a daily driver.

 

its only fraud if you try to pass it off. its leagal as long as its reported when the car is registered and when the title is transferred (there are places on both forms for that)

 

Okay Well My O.d Says 135,000
What Do I Have To Do To Get It Turned Back To 44,000 (what I Have On New Motor)
But Still Be Legitt?

 

does your car have a digital OD or an analogue OD? if its digital you might just have to find a guage cluster for sale with the right amount of miles on it but you would have to report it to your local DMV and get your registration changed. im not sure about an analogue OD.

 

Assuming you're talking about your '88 SE, and assuming S4s have analog odometers, you wouldn't face any legal trouble from rolling it back. Odometer disclosures are exempted for anything over 10 years old in WA state. That means the state is telling buyers they are on their own for determining mileage after 10 years. So, if you were to roll back the clock to 44,000 for your own reference on the motor, I'd just suggest noting down the chassis mileage shown before the rollback on something like the title, in case you ever sell the car and feel like giving a full disclosure of the mileage to the new owner. I plan to do this on my project '80, especially as the cluster will be a transplant from an '85.

 

the car is not a salvage title, the cluster says zero because we put a the higher mph speedo in it insteasd of the 85mph one.

weather its fraud or not...the car has potential and could be made into a beast with the right amount of time and money.

 

the odometer doesnt work that is why it is set to "0"

okay hammy thks, but one more thing i never tried rolling the od back, how do you do that cause that would be bad *** if it said 44,000 instead of 134,00
btw how you know i gota 88 se huh?

 

duhhhh, cause it says so in your personal information, click you avatar....

 

Dunno, never done it yet myself =p.

 

only if it isn't disclosed..

... and it's disclosed.
