If it's clean and 100,000 miles, this is a car with a lot of goodies for a decent price. The interior seems pretty beat but for 15, it's not bad. Doesn't look like a ton of care was taken in putting it together, but clean title(?) and goodies make it a pretty good buy.

its a good deal. yeah, definitly check for clean title, oil leak, and any clues of a collision. I got my 94 for 13k w/ almost bone stock. and at the very bottom says if u purchase w/ buy it now price. ($15k), he'll include a second motor. what a steal!

good luck w/ the purchase. hope its as good as it seems

Has this thing been in a lot of crashes or something?

"The car has been fully rebuilt from the ground up"

"It has had a full performance restoration"

"Complete Performance restoration"

If nothing else, it's been done "fully"and "completely", so he says about a hundred times.

seems to me that he jack up the prices of the parts by 50% from market price. I have my porting for $200 and got my 3mm apex seal for 300.

something fishy going on here.

Did you guys even read the ad?

"The motor currently smokes but will start,most probably will need rebuilding."

ESPECIALLY how the 'needs rebuilding' is in SMALL font. Nice.

The Font looks the same size as the rest of the Ad to me - am I missing something?

And he says it twice, it sure doesn't seem like he's trying to hide anything...
