And this is why I loathe what the auction houses have done to the hobby for the grass roots enthusiasts (aka guys who drive their cars).

The auctions are fun to watch, but I'm more into "survivor" cars, or "Ratty Musclecars" than trailer queens. I'd like to take one of those Judges, or LS6's on a gravel road for the day, hit some two lane blacktops and beat on em a little...tear up the rear tires...leave posi marks that will last all summer so I can see them whenever I drive on that road.

Picts are from 4 years ago according to the camera labels. Let just hope those where the before restoration images. If not I'll just pretend they are.
Might be able to change the right signal bulb through that bumper gap.

He's got some parts left over from the restoration...and I think that bumper may be one of them.

I like how he had to mention it's a 2 door.

Sad thing is the car looks fairly solid & could be made into a nice driver from what we can see. Heck, might only need a few weekends worth of work? BUT, when a person puts a price tag that is possibly 3X what it should be, that opens the doors for criticism.
Not because the car is a POS, But it's a parts car compared to most legitimately in the $50K market.

Don't forget it has a "gas V8". Now if it had that rare Diesel option......
My bet it's a scam the way it's worded and the old pictures. |

I’ve seen a few scams on eBay this month. Hijacked photos of a car sold months ago. Reappears with buy it now at half it’s value and some fishy grammar in the description.
There is a nice gold 69 Fbird at the moment that looks like trouble.
