Its funny when you look at the sellers other cars they all seem to be miracles. Well then again the sellers name is Jesus_Loves_You 707 LOL. He MUST be an honest seller!

Agreed, until it shows up next week or the person who bought it finds out what a fairy tale this guy told...

When you look at the rocker panel close up pictures there seems to be some "rust" at the bottom which I suspect may be more sinister underneath. The passenger door and fender aren't aligned and by the looks of the paint chip, the paint is pretty thick and chips easily,  but that can be fixed. It looks like someone patched the trunk and hid it with all that speckle paint. The parking brake pull is bent and in the video it didn't look like the cowl induction was working. He never mentions the rear end or the gearing, Some of the pictures look deliberately strategic especially on the interior. The way he talks about the previous owner and the motor most likely means you might as well write it off because he doesn't have it. With the other lies it sounds like this guy fabricated a fairytale story around the car.

I agree about the eBay comments, they dont give a rats ass, HOWEVER, Seller protection may come in handy once the new owner gets a look at this "two owner" California car owned by a little old lady in Pasadena. :-)

I got an email from a guy that confirms this is a SMALL block car and the engine was added after he sold it. Supposedly it still had wiring and rust issues  but for the price an ok driver. It chaps my hide that the owner claims that this is a 2 owner California car when clearly its not because the car was delivered to Maine. But hey, if you want to drive it like it is, go for it. Just smash the sellers spun illusion and realize what you are buying...

Too bad we cant get the word out to the sucker that is going to pay waaaay too much to this jackass broker... Is it me or do the bids on eBay look manipulated on this auction. Like he has his friends bidding the car up... eBay should crack down but they never will

Caveat Emptor my friends...

  Watch out for this car its not two owners. I owned it once and I live in Connecticut. Its far from rust free look under the gas tank. Why no spare tire hold down?  I hope someone fixed the wiring monster that is running loose in it (horn never worked). Its gauges are changed from when I had it. I believe its a converted 350 car but who am I to say? oh yeah... D'OH
By the looks of it the quarters were replaced which makes sense as they were rusted through at one time. My advice pass unless you really want a converted 350 car. A broker from Vegas, go figure...
