    Deals fall apart from personal conflicts all the time. Both parties start suspicious.

    But when you post this-
    And then say that you can’t get pictures, well, I’m not sure I’d believe you either. And I’m pretty sure you have it

    That Odo pic was from that old thread I linked to.
    See, that's the thing. If there's any question about trust or believing one another, it just isn't gonna happen.
    I don't see where anybody claimed pics weren't provided. Becuase they were. And service records back to new. Etc.

    I'm not a big fan of where this is going. I'm a long time active participant on this forum. So let me end it with this:

    As I said they either need a ton work, money, and time investment

    or they want way too much....sometimes both....

    even then they kick themselves in the ass and wish they never sold it.......

    That's Truck Porn........gives em a stiffy.......they get wet just talkin about it

    Its a tough negotiation.....like selling one of your kids
    they tend to be easily offended....


    As for the buyer, you may be better to wait and try to find one on an estate sale...
    there's a ton of them out there, just sitting

    have that cash ready.......no checks please....................

    3 distinct sub gen1 categories
    you have to decide if you want to put up with points distributor...
    or at the other end ...totally electronic TB and tranny combo, and all its pitfalls.

    And it seems the later the year.......the quicker the frames rust away....
    especially the ones replaced, seem to rust in double time....

    Thanks. I have no clue where to find estate sales, any websites that can monitor them for cars nationally? Did some research but most are showing memorabilia etc not cars

    Mine came from facebook.....
    they couldn't speak English, so that impeded the sale until I could break thru


    On a 'still sale' that is one thats been sitting around.......there's about a 50/50 it'll need a head gasket

    so ....better calculated that.....


    So roll the dice.....or pay a ridicules price


    I spent about a year looking......I didn't want points
    and I didnt want a 5vz period.


    About 5 yrs ago there where plenty of standards around.......but not many autos.........90% of them around 300K
