My personal favorite is "good runner." I have no loving idea what that phrase is intended to convey, but every inexpensive truck sold in a rural area in the northeast includes that phrase.

I'm not sure what that one translates to, but I have figured out that "unstoppable power" = needs brake and "recently painted" means recently rolled.

That looked like it was done in MS Paint at first glance.

After I whacked the poo poo sticking out of the bed off. Would have been better with the raw rust spots though. Ninja edit: Wait......there were no 4 door trucks in that body style that I recall. I bet it's a poo poo storm under there. But it get points for west coast mirrors. Motronic fucked around with this message at 04:50 on Apr 17, 2014 |

The black hood has to add 15hp, if he's got an aftermarket air filter, exhaust tip, and a few stickers, you're there!

Problem is, its a 90's B-body. The interior is a godamned SYMPHONY of squeaks and rattles. Particularly when driven aggressively. They're great cars, but holy gently caress the interiors are a disaster. That one presses quite a few of my buttons, though.

Clean (rusty as gently caress) They're great trucks, but that one ain't worth $2500. You used to be able to pick those up for $500 in that condition.

Nice car, but $17K? I mean, I'm sorry you spent $40k building it it, but that's because you used a Turn Key engines crate LS1. There is literally nothing else custom about the interior or exterior, though it is in very nice condition. Also, your "custom" wheels are Impala SS stock wheels with Olds decals in the center caps. I dunno, maybe my $$ meter is broken -I'm a cheap bastard. I do love that wagon, though. They were decent even with the LT1. I would drive it every day (can't get worse gas mileage than my 4-banger XJ, and I bet it will tow and haul more...)

In regards to the Avocado car-thing: It is pretty obvious that it's a joke post, probably meant to annoy the poo poo out of somebody. Note that it gives the phone number in plain, no bullshit numbers and says it's ok to call anytime, day or night. I did laugh at the "Need to sell ASAP, need money for 2014 Kiwi" gag though.

No, that B-body isn't worth $17k. They also for no loving reason used a built-up 700R4 instead of letting the ECM control a 4L60E. I also wonder why they bothered with a speed-density tune.

PCOS Bill posted:Given the amount of visible rust, I would imagine "Walk away" bad That's where they start to rust first. Then the doglegs eat out from the inside out as the rear wheels throw crap into the front of the wheel well. It's still got solid rockers, so I'd say if the floors are tight and solid, as well as the body mounts, then it's in the high end of the ballpark. The interior would have to be good as well.
