Someone find real gold in the north east because I crashed my car and have money burning a hole in my pocket. 5k or less preferably. Will buy plane ticket if it's 10-12ish hours away.

That night we performed the rite and opened the gate.
Halfway through, I went to fix us both a coke float.
By the time I got back, he'd gone insane.
Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.

My parents had a 1960 Jaguar Mk2 3.8 for a while when I was a kid. My favorite part about it was on the back of the front seats there were little wooden fold down trays.


I have a 2003 Pontiac Vibe. The passenger seat folds forward and the whole seat back is a plastic table.

I love old celicas. But who the gently caress sells a car with only one picture? I might text him for more.

Someone was selling a Lexus SC400 for 3k on my local craigslist. Few pics of the outside, one pic of the engine. Its an hour away so I texted him.

I used to nice detailed listings, then I realized vague ones with a picture or two gets more responses. Plus, you can easily feel out the buyer to see if they are actually serious and if its someone you are willing to let your baby go to.

Seats are all hosed on every single drat sc300/sc400 out there. 'Worn' def. means they are blasted.
It's so difficult to find an interior door panel that I seriously think I have to buy a whole car just for that panel and sell it immediately again.

ANYWAY if you are looking for an sc300/sc400 there is this guy



I told him I'd give him 5200 cash and he said no. He then emailed me again lowering his price, I told him what I'd pay. This was two weeks ago. Yesterday he sent me another message telling me about some other stuff he's replaced :allears: Guessing he isn't having any luck. He's also being a bit dishonest with the timing belt, that was changed in 2011 and 50k miles ago.


There is this sc400 for sale here locally for around 3k

You follow the path

Yours to manipulate, to destroy and rebuild.

Now, in the quantum moment

when all become one.

One moment left.
One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.


Would not buy, but I was surprised to see a catchphrase I like spray painted on a Vanagon windshield:

I should have bought the 18k 1987 Turbo II for $6500 a few years ago. At this rate, it would be $10k.

Something tells.me there's more of a story than they're letting on. Why is the back half a different shade of red from the front half?

yeah, that plus the decals and poo poo. figured id take a look at it since its pretty close to see if the LS lower would be decent enough to put a B16 or b18 vtec head on it

If I was unemployed I would buy one of those 4 car carriers trailers and a truck and just move poo poo boxes from Georgia to Rustia. As it is I just have to wait for some dummy to move here from there and be broke and have to sell their car.

My inlaws used to live in a senior condo until last year and 2 stalls from theirs was parked an 84-85 Accord 2 door hatchback with something like 30,000KMs. A literal little old grandma owned car being driven to church every now and then. And looked absolutely mint. Would love to have that car.

That's really high for a very basic model. My uncle has a '88 GXL - if it was one of those it might be worth it.

I guess this means I can actually sell my 225K mile '90 GXL for $2K (runs/drives/doesn't leak.)

That's what I was thinking. I mean, it's in very nice original condition, but it's a base model with no options. The only thing cool on it is that kickin' rad louver on the back window.

No, I just think he's dumb. I have seen nothing that says the LTS was offered with anything but the BP.

And I keep finding Escort GT's with automatics, what kind of a dick orders the "fun" version in an auto?
