Don't know what happened to the Lunds.

I have no problem with someone trying to make a buck. Perhaps the PO really needed the cash. The "no known problems" worries me as the old ebay ad referred to a speedo problem, but perhaps it had been fixed.

Funny how the drivers window is in the exact same position in both pics ;)

He watched Barrett Jackson and figured there are some clueless people out there, and one may bite.

License plate is the same too. Was probably never registered once in NY.

[mluder]

Yeah... That's all kinds of scary.

My mind goes to - Couldn't title/register the vehicle in NY for some reason. Probably engine/emissions related. So he got estimates to fix it and then... WHOA too expensive! Gotta dump this and make some mony while I can.

I think this is actually a dealer. I recall seeing one of his ebay listing before, and a quick search brings up his website, with two other D's on it (neither one 982)

Definitely Barrette Jackson related.

I've seen it on that add and a few others before that say the 5-speed is rare... It doesn't seem that way to me, but is that actually true?

[Dangermouse]

I think it's something like 60/40 split auto/manual, so neither one would be considered rare.

DMCH might be responsible too.

Wow. I just noticed that one of those expensive cars has a plastic coolant tank. Ouch.

That's a 10% deduction right there; still too high at that, even.

Don't you love the homemade front grill:thumbdown: And the Velcro strips on all the lights? Must have covers for the lights. Don't know why they don't say it's an automatic.
