Remember this car??
Remember this car on Ebay a couple months ago? I do! Recognized the paint blemishes. Back then it was not running. Someone obviously bought it - I need to check their feedback and see if there was feedback on that auction and how much they paid for it (I believe it was around $8k)...and is reselling it. Still might be a good deal for someone? Who knows.

The car would make a nice fixer uppper at that price. If I was closer, I would buy it and fix her up for resale. I wonder what the real story is.This car has had an interesting past.

Re: Remember this car?? (VetteBabe1)
I remember it! :yesnod: If I recall, the engine had started to be taken apart, and the pictures showed wires kinda hanging. The story the guy has on the Ebay auction does sound credible. There was a thread on this car here, I think. Also, a forum member had bought a '96 Bravada from that same wholesaler, and that particular wholesaler was, um, shall we say, shady... :eek:
Whoa! I found the thread!!

and the original auction - Car sold for $12,100.

Re: Remember this car?? (zyal8r)
Ok - yeah now I remember it started at $7k and did go into the 12's. You are right. Still a deal, but I would be nervous about its past treatment...all that paint/hood damage and plus was not running and they couldn't figure out why during the last auction....hmmmmm....:nonod:
