1970 383 Mopar Engine - $200

1970 383 Mopar Engine, came out of a 1970 Plymouth Satellite, complete with factory forged steel rods and crankshaft, caps and mains, less maniford (still looking for it under the house - might be available)

I have to wonder what it was doing under the house in the first place. That's probably the best price you're going to see on a 383 around central texas, though.

2003 Limited Edition Yamaha R6 red w/ Black flames - $5500

I bought this bike with the intention of pulling mad tail. I used to drive a Ford Exploder and figured that the punani would flock in like mad if I bought a R6. Unfortuneatly I missed the memo where motorcycles stopped being cool after those dripsacks at Touchstone released Wild Hogs.

Motorcycles become bad rear end with scenes of Tom Cruise riding his Kawasaki into the sunset. Motorcycles became the lamented stereotype of John Travolta skinny dipping with other men. Scientologists.

I don't need it, it was a retarded impulse buy with the dumbest bank on the planet, I have no urge to ride it. I wanted to turn it into a track bike, but I don't need another retarded expensive hobby.

Cosmetically it�s practically perfect besides for a scrape on the right lower fairing and mid-pipe on the exhaust (you can barely tell, as you can see in the picture). The douchecanoe I bought it from thought it would be a good idea to armor-all the tires to make it look pretty� Well his idea worked because I bought this bike based solely on the fact it had shiny tires.

Long story short, I laid it down doing 5mph in the parking lot the night I bought trying to jump off of a train like those guys in Torque. It slid for like a foot and half and if you insist on making a big deal about it I will put a new frame slider on it for you.

The reason you should buy this POS:

* Limited Edition color I guess.
* 13k Miles. (3k Mine 10k moron that sold me the bike with armorall on the tires)
* DynoJet Power Commander (+200 fwhp)
* Leather interior
* Micron Highmount
* Frame Sliderzzzzz (You are gonna get good use of)
* Small Turn Signals
* Heated/Cool cup holders swapped from a Mini Cooper
* Extra sprocket.
* Black painted windscreen. Don�t even pretend like you are good enough to tuck.
* Stock Exhaust and Turn Signals in hand.
* Side impact air bags.
* 2 Rear wheels, one with Flat tire came with it? wtfMATE?
* Red Neon under fearing kit, Solid or sound powered (Siqq)
* Free Wendy's Baconator Coupon underneath the rear seat
* Pay my asking price and get some Gloves and All Weather Nelson-Rigg Cover too.
* Don�t pay asking price and get one glove.
* Title in Hand

$5500 OBO

Will not sell to DFR, or people named Khalid. Or BMW owners.

Will not trade for DSMs or Evos. However, I am willing to run your car in the quarter faster than you can drive it, free of charge. HIGHLY not interested in your POS drift car, Nick Hogan wannabe.

e: added new url. seems this guy traded more pics for the word "douchecanoe"

They take payment via Western Union (to some guy in China) or bank wire transfer. Amusingly enough, he lists his name and bank account number on the website, along with the SWIFT code identifying his local bank branch. I don't know what it'd be possible to do with that information, but it's still the sort of thing most people avoid putting on the Internet.

2005 Mini Cooper S Conv, Loaded with 15k Audio - $33000
http://atlanta.craigslist.org/car/613025146.html

I guess modz on a mini increase the value instead of what usually happens.

The Mini is still under the Factory 50k Warranty

Carbon Fiber: JCW Scoop,mirror caps, boot lip
Custom FiberGlass Molded Box to house Amps and Subs (painted Chili Red to Match)
**Rear Seat was removed to house Custom Box

**The Vehicle was only Tracked once.
**This Mini is not a daily driver and that is why the milage is low.

I have all records of everything that has been done to the car.

I have over $17,500 invested in Mods

Asking: $ 33,000 OBO

If you were to build a Vehicle like i have you would have to invest over $50,000 to get where this vehicle is. This vehichle is show quality that you can drive to the track or to the dragon and compete or just show off and we know all Mini Owners like to show off a little

The Car is located in Knoxville TN

Ladies and Gentlemen,
I own a 1993 Ford Mustang GT that I must sell due to the fact that I haven't driven the vehical since Jan. 07'. I start her up every couple of weeks and take it around he block but thats it. Runs good, sounds good, not to far from lookin good too.

Originally she was all red exterior and I bought her from the first owner, making me the second owner. The interior of the car is grey leather and in good shape.

Good tires rap around stock ponies (Rims). The suspension is lowered 1.5" w/ BBK lowering springs and still has the quad shocks.

The car is moved by a stock 5.0L 302 cu. inch motor (156k mi original motor) and shifts via a Tremic TKO 5-spd tranny. The tranny is connected to the rear end by an aluminum drive shaft, which spins the stock .275 gears (I believe thats the gear ratio). She breaths through the large Ford Racing Headers (Unequal Length), connected to an Off Road H-pipe and flow master mufflers. Large after market Radiator too. Forgot to mention the K&N air filter and cold air intake.

The body needs some work as the car was broken into and my system stolen years back. The hood popped open when cruising & dented the area btwn the hood and the window and making a crack in the window (no other damage other than the hood). Drinkin n' Drivin is a double edged sword and caused me to damage my fender on the passenger side.

Indeed it is
