I've stayed out of this so far.
It's just not any of my business to tell anybody what to say, how to run
their lives, what to ask for their broken down cars.
However after watching this thread go for two days I'm just hoping that the
fellow that finally buys his NO ENGINE / NO Transaxle Syncro shows up in his
driveway after missing his small print trick and just kicks his ass all the
way down the block.
Now lets all chant together "Down the Block","Down the Block", "Down the
Block","Down the Block".
With a few hundred of us chanting I'm almost sure it can happen.

last i checked it was almost $800 w/ 6 days to go.    did you see the pics?
the body looks very clean, i must say.     still its odd that he raves about
a
new muffler etc when there is no engine..    LOL
actually i had a IM with him the other day.. about his 89 Bluestar.. he
seemed  honest about its condition, etc, but he kept interjecting references
to
"European Union"  "Aryan superiority" "need to leave the USA ASAP" etc. so
the
conversation was a bit bizarre.   he sent me pics of his Bluestar, but i was
afraid to open the file..   anyway..
