Thought it would be harder.


Looks like all you need is a set of wheels, something to scuff up the bumper and some sheet metal screws to attach the door.


Not sure what add ons make it a Collector's Ed.

I laughed hardest when I saw it is an automatic.
Maybe there is something wrong with me?
Definitely something wrong with this ad!
But at least it's a reasonable price.

Yes, I saw that picture of the wash with the roof off and wondered the same thing.

Plus who put a picture of themself washing the car in a for sale ad anyway? Not sure how that would help sell it
