that really sucks.

my suggestion for ebay is to do no reserve, BUT, start the auction at the lowest price ur willing to accept for the car. this makes ppl realize exactly what u want for the car and eliminates b.s. bids of ppl trying to figure out ur reserve price

Okay, that I can see adding up pretty quick. You should have posted all that stuff up earlier. lol. Not trying to bash by any means, I wish you the best of luck. I was curious though if it was basically a stock 6 bolt with a refreshed head but obviously not. That list will definatly help justify the price.

Im not sure if its just me, but I feel as if ive seen this car for sale several times. Rob is a good guy, im sure you could compromise on a decent price, because isnt the buyer going to have to put money into it as soon as they get it also?

sureshot!-Longuyen88 is my best friend and he knows this car in and out as we work on out cars together,

4g63girl- the head has about 2.5k or so on the head (since motor was swap in at 101k) and the block is stock with about 100k

jkucz28- honestly im a debt, so i need money. but u can pm me with more info and pics.

TheKID10788- yes this car has been posted up a few times. 1) i just didnt want it any more 2) motor went 3) now with new paint and motor.

as like everyone said when i tried to sell the shell “fix it and sell it, or part it out”.  
its fixed and needs a new home.

Thought it needed new turbo parts… If not then I can understand his offer being a lowball… But is it still the only cash offer?
