No, he did pretty well - stalled it a couple of times & did his first burnout too.

Good meeting you too Joe.

Just got my Molly Hatchet 8-track in the mail today so I had to go out for a little drive this afternoon - It was like August of 79 all over again.

14 Hours left & a steal at this price! Somebody will get a killer Firebird for the cost of a used Taurus.

Could have bought one just like it a week or two ago on eBop for 10k !

Noticed a guy from NC inquired in Q&A, did he send his phone number and discuss ?
I'd vouche for your character if a reference helped ease his thoughts on traveling to get a car from a stranger.

This was just too overdone ... imho
"there are factory defects in the paint, including dirt, hairs, drips/runs/pools & some metal flake droops"

makes it sound like earl schieb sprayed it for 79.95
then refunded the money after the results were dry. lol
