Word back from the photoshopped CRX guy.







I'm not even sure what I'm seeing here...is that bondo over cardboard?

It's totally ethical to mspaint out the bondo on your car. Probably just wants to get people over to look at it, where it's easier to talk them into a sale. It certainly makes me curious what the other side of the car, which he seems to have avoided taking pictures of, looks like.

In response to the fuckface selling the Sky above.

first off, he says it has a loving V6 engine(non-turbo) even though the Sky/Solstice were never equipped as such.

Secondly, LOL 22 INCH RIMS those loving things are factory 19's at best.

How loving stupid does he think people are.

Back in October somebody (probably the same guy) was selling a 'new' GT500KR convertible. Bought it, drove it home, took pictures of it out in the snow, was "accepting best offer over $60k".

Edit: I just went to write a reply to that Sky seller, and he didn't provide any contact info in his ad. I guess since he can't be expecting to sell it for that price he must not be expecting any response.

Could be a flower car -- sort of an open-topped hearse, for showing off the flowers on top of the casket. All the '50s ones I can find have a different B-pillar/back window design, but they were individually custom-built, so anything's possible. They did often leave the back door handles on when they converted them.

More RICE than a chinese buffet with 2 for 1 coupons, meaning 2 people eat for the price of one, so they have assloads of rice on the bar since, well, rice is cheap, crab legs and oysters are expensive and. God, never mind, it's a lovely joke when you gotta explain it.
