How so? I looked through all the photos and only noticed two things. On of the props on the dash had cracks where a bolt was going into it, and there were some cap screws rusting. Otherwise it looked fine.Originally Posted by Gary Weaver II

Always check with the source! lol
Yes, that is one my cars, #3.
I am ashamed of this car, it was the worst one I ever built.
The client needed it in a super hurry, had a tiny budget and told me that he himself suffered from Parkinson's and wanted to use
the car as part of a fundraiser golf tournament.
We built this car in about a week.... not my best work.
These had my old vents that were to thin, wrong design, etc.
All that said, it certainly isn't "falling apart", I put these things together very well.
The parts will not come off.
A design note, I actually pre-rust those screws and bolts to add age and texture.
I have seen other replicas and they are a little to new and clean looking.
I want the car to look old, like it's been through time and space.
The patina gives it character.
I never saw the craigslist ad, but I know photos of my cars have been used in many scam ads like this.

My apologies. I saw the overly rusted screws, dangling tcd keypad, broken dash boxes, missing fusion latch, poorly fitted vent hoses and other parts I thought it was a sign the current owners simply werent treating it with much respect.
I had no idea it was SUPPOSED to look like that.

I agree, seems rather unjustified.

I'd hardly call those TRUE observations about Bob's car being a dick. However, if I did want to be a dick, I'd consider myself completely justified. This is just one of the unsolicited emails I get from Videobob. I have plenty more - and even a video he sent me that would blow your mind.

"....except those blue lights look totally fucking gay.
Clean? yes it is... no personality.
just like you. Boring as paint drying.
I cant tell you how many people told me how lame you and your car was at the comic con.
How you were nervously guarding it and begging for fives to sit in
the car! ha haaa
you dumb douchebag!
I get $10 hahhahahabaha
If you kept your big beaver teeth mouth shit and not make jabs
at me you wouldn't have to put up with me responding to you.
I wish you would fucking die already.
Your such a spineless puke.
The way you couldn't even look me in the eye at the DMC show
and you faced the wall during my video presentation.
I pissed on your face and you don't even have the balls to tell
me to fuck off to my face.
fuckfard.
you are the epitome of a coward.
kill yourself."

There's nothing like a BTTF thread to get it spiraling downwards in record time.
