A non-running FC is not worth more than $1000 in my book, regardless of the engines potential condition.

I'd be skeptical as to why is not put back together. He said its because he was waiting for larger injectors, but it could in reality be any number of reasons.

On another note, the paint has several patches missing on the rear, and the one door panel is mismatched, which would make me skeptical as to how well that cars been taken care of. I'd say dont buy it.

The interior is two colours, it needs paint, there doesn't seem to be an exhaust system, it doesn't run, and the seller doesn't seem to know what he/she is talking about....It's a risk at $1000. Personally, I would pay $500 for it. Delivered.

Ummmm we are saying there might be more to this car than what the guy says......it's not about the price......It might cost a whole lot more to fix, or get running, than what the seller says so we advised him to not buy.......WTF are you talking about?
