Hi,
did anybody knows the seller of that car here? http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=296312 http://newyork.craigslist.org/mnh/cto/5810517499.html For me it still looks like a fraud attempt! |

I did a reverse image search and there are other earlier ads on this car from
other real sites, in the >$30K land. So yeah, this ebay ad just stole the pics, even states 1970 in one place and 1971 in another. |
