    I used to think you could repair/resurrect anything but now I know that isn't the case. This isn't a DeLorean or a car or an anything anymore We salute you VIN 1968

    Yes, it is/was Alex's car. He was at a few tech sessions.

    No-one is to stone anyone, even, and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they do say "carburetor"

    Hmm, I'm very sorry to hear he lost everything. I hope he is ok. Those wildfires were a real tragedy.

    I'm genuinely curious:

    -Why bother listing something that's so completely destroyed?

    --Would anyone actually be interested in buying it, and why?

    The only reason could be for the VIN to swap onto another car.

    You could probably make a piece of abstract art out of it...

    Bingo!

    If I had a large enough garage, I'd buy this in a heartbeat. I'd weld the remnants together to keep the remains intact, shove a few hidden lights inside here and there, and would then mount it on the wall as a large piece of reclaimed garage art.

    That or place a huge piece of tempered glass on top to create a coffee table.

    How about the chassis? That could be salvageable. The heat probably melted the epoxy too. Ha.
