It seems the auction was ended early. I was going to wait and bid, but guess not. Prolly a good thing, because the last thing I need is another project (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Ditto. It was hovering between 5-6k and I think he wanted north of $10k... I would be down with checking it out.... and I'm right up the street.

what's the logic behind hiding the VIN?

it's a lot of money to spend on a smashed
car without verification of originality.

Wolfgang,
You make me feel ashamed.

That's may be happend to you , but is not the rule of
German guys.
Specially not for guys in the 914 scene.
You shouldn't it generalize.

Frankly I don't see the need to publicly list a VIN number to the world in an advertisement or an ebay sale. I would happily provide it to serious buyers, but it doesn't need to be displayed anyone who happens upon the ad (for whatever reason, intended purchaser or otherwise).

Guy is asking 11K for a wrecked car, and refusing to give VIN to potential buyers who ask him. This tells me that something fishy is going on, else why hide the VIN until you buy the car?

I didn't know he was hiding it from potential buyers. I don't see that bit of information in this thread anywhere.

My point was that I don't think it's necessary to put the VIN into your advertisements. I made a distinction about public display vs. giving it to serious buyers.

People ask in his Ebay ad, and he make no bones about not telling them until they buy. Its just fishy. It could be nothing.

It could be that he only wants to protect the buyer. If someone wanted to rebuild the car and later sell it, then it would be publicly known the car was wrecked.

It should be publicly known that the car was wrecked, especially considering the extent of the damage. Even if the car is fully restored to be sold again, potential buyers should be aware of the history. Anything less would be dishonest/unethical IMHO.
