Wow..This car has 'shot pinged' rods...huh?

The front is kinda nice...the rest of it... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/sick.gif (where's the heave smiley when you need it!)
 
Sounds/LOOKS like a BIG mess to me! NO wonder he wants to pawn it off on someone whom thinks they can make something out of it.
 
Shot-pinged rods:

The engine suffered from "pinging" (detonation) and the rods were so damaged that they are now "shot" (slang for ruined).
 
With so many donor parts shouldn't this be listed under vehicle type 'other'?
 
He's taking bids until May?
He thinks he can find someone that gullible in that short a space of time - wow - anyone wanna buy a bridge?

I forgot the 'Edel Block" intake?

That's a misspelling. The car has been sitting idle, so he meant to write "idle-block".
 
Looks like a winner to me!
