It was the sellers terms I really dodged a bullet when I discovered the FAKE I got my deposit back.

35k for driver quality work?

What makes this A body a fake? Why not post the full vin if there is an issue?

Sounds like you were lucky to get money back.... Is this crook talk for I can con you and I think I can get away with it?

The ad brags about matching vin stamps on the engine and trans, but doesn't show them, or any body stampings.
Is that a '72 hood?

btw, good call on showing the vin tag up

I think you dodged a major bullet with or without the fake information, in my opinion anyway.

Aaahh, THAT guy - those backgrounds are familiar from previous CL ads on other Mopars.
Seems to do a few basically partial repairs, gets them in primer, and flips them.
I can't recall any of the cars being complete, but at least some look sketchy...

IMHO that car looks like a total mess for the money being asked. I think you dodged a major bullet on that deal.

I love this statement!

This is a rust free car with all its original panels including trunk and floors. The drivers quarter was replaced at some point

I really liked this project but its probably overpriced for the missing drivetrain and needing the work it needs. I love the color combo though

Were you able to look at the car in person? Or is this all based on the seller's closing comments? Nice codes on that fender tag!
