My favorite part of the ad for this car:

"In a few weeks you could drive it.."

I think they meant to say a few weeks of MONTHS along with a wad of cash.

It even has a special title:

Vehicle Title: Rebuilt, Rebuildable & Reconstructed

Says no rust but you can see rust holes in the front trunk and lots of brown crusty stuff in the front trunk. Sounds like a used car salesman.

And that isnt even the front trunk. Its an extra front clip with VIN tag in the passenger area. I wonder if this is how they get the numbers to match?

"pumper chrome perfect".

You've seen this car as we "borrowed" parts from it putting mine together. He's a desperate kid that's giving up on this. He had this car and a parts car. He has had 2 front and rear bumpers sent out and re chromed in a wrapper. He'd take a decent offer I'm sure.

are they paying $3000 to come and get it?

Only if you take all the rust with it.

I take back what I said not knowing who's car it was. He is a good guy and the car is pretty solid. Needs all the assembly obviously. If he has an early chrome bumper I know of a 6 restoration in need of one. If the bumpers are included they should be pictured as they are worth at least $500 each.

Yes, it's JP's and he's a starving good kid, I tried real hard to help him finish the car
as he's in the business and could make it a good car, with the right offer, he'd give it up, he used my frame machine to measure it, light pull at the right front. It's in better shape than what I started with. A ton of good parts and YES he has cherry front/rear bumpers that have been re-done in wrappers. He's just desperate to get rid of it now.

Hmmm... I wonder if he'd sell me the bumpers for $500 for the pair.

As in $500 EACH
Don't pick the bones.
