Craigslist has been getting hosed sideways by spammers recently, and doing it in an unconventional way - they're using local phone numbers. If payphones still existed I'd go call one of these guys up just to find out what the deal is.
Just an idea if you really want to find out.

Several caller ID spoofing services are available online that not only hide your number from the recipient's caller ID, they also make the call appear to be coming from another phone number altogether. Even better, you decide what number you want to show up when you call. I recommend this trick at SpoofCard, one of many such services. Just give SpoofCard your number, the number you want to call, and the number you want to show up in the caller ID; SpoofCard takes care of rest.

I found this beauty today. It looks really awesome. I have never seen a rotary powered Suzuki Sidekick before.

Guarantee that it's a Puerto Rican guy selling it. Around here almost all the Puerto Rican guys drive rotary powered vehicles, including several vehicles that didnt' originally have rotary engines. One of them has a geo tracker with a loud bridgeported 12a. I think the rotary is their national engine. The only other combo they approve of are old RWD japanese sports cars with V8 engines. (1st gen rx7 with chev 350, S30 Z with mopar big block). They're all pretty nice guys though.

I doubt it given the area that they are living in is complete redneck ville. I have never seen anything even resembling a Puerto Rican within miles of that area. From my understanding everyone in that city is related to each other, but I could be wrong on that one.

1957 Fiat Abarth 600 Rally Car



quote:

1957 Fiat 600 Abarth vintage race car: SCCA, VARA, La Carrera Panamericana

Description - This is a one of a kind vintage turnkey race car in great condition. It is currently set up for vintage racing: road racing and road rallies. It is also street legal (licensed and titled)

History- This car has been raced for over 20 years on the west coast with numerous wins and many top 5's, it has competed with Vara, SCCA, SWMS and pro auto, and participated in the 2007 La Carrera Panamerican, An historic 2000 mile, 7 day road rally across Mexico with competitors from all over the globe. The car had the smallest displacement in the race and therefore was started last in the 100 car field, It not only finished every stage and every day of the race without a mechanical failure, it crossed the finish line in the top 50, ahead of many cars with V8"s and many times the displacement, and support. It won the popular award and was one of the few Carrera cars featured in the Automovil Magazine (see pic). It is also featured is the book La Carrera Panamericana – “The World’s Greatest Road Race!” by John Tipler. If you are familiar with the Carrera Panamericana then you will have an idea of the capabilities of this car: many cars with engines more expensive than the cost of this car do not finish the race.

There is a YouTube clip of the car racing in the La Carrera Panamericana. Go to Youtube.com and type in the title La Carrera Panamericana 2007 Fiat and watch/listen to the car race by.

Maybe I'm not well-informed, but after sitting in a yard/field like that for what appears to be since Bush said "no new taxes", I have a hard time believing it's "good conditioned".



Being from Beavercreek I can tell you that "Good Condition" is very subjective out there, to him this might be good condition compared to his other cars.It looks really bad but that could just be from the dirt. Sometimes field cars hold up well, but a lot of times they don't. He does say it would be a good project car, and it is in better shape than some projects I have seen started.

Site says 4200lbs, and individual waivers may be granted... You might be able to chop it down to weight, add lightweight safety equipment, and be granted the go ahead.

I have never heard of them actually weighing the vehicles at a LeMons event either. They just eyeball it, so if you can make it look lighter, even if it isn't, you would probably get the go ahead too.

Ah another crazy H1 auction:

Something that crosses two fan bases but doesn't really make it practical for either side to consider buying. Either too nice to use or too expensive to own.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120592364877

http://www.starwarshummer.com/

It's the Darth Vader Hummer Taco Bell prize from 96-97, back when everyone was getting excited about the special editions and news of the prequels.

The last time I saw this for sale the guy wanted $250,000 for it. :v:

Still priced too high, it would get high book value because it's in mint shape but IMO the star wars stuff doesn't add any value to it.

It's sort of like folks who hack Delorians up to make BTTF cars and then expect to sell them for 2-3x the value of the car. :doh:

/edit

Turns out my friend built it for the promotion back in 96-97, it was originally a white soft top, but the problem was they wanted a Gasoline powered black soft top [at this point the Gasser model H1's had a very short production run]. All they could source was a white model which was repainted black for this promotion.

That pick from the car show is the Roadster Show here in Portland, which I get volunteered to help out with every year. I have seen this thing driving around and I would never pay that kind of money for it. I wish I would have grabbed some pics of the owner while he was driving this thing in. I am frankly surprised he isn't a goon.
