Hey guys,
The 1990 Martini Metro I bought on here from Yavuz last year is back up for sale. You may remember the cool little white Metro he was selling on here that is completly stripped,but if not here is the CL ad. The car has not run in many months,but if the wire were fixed,and the battery charged there is no doubt it would fire right up. Let me know if you are interested. It isn't ging to win any concourse competitions,but it could be made into a sweet $200X car which was what we had intended,but never got to it,and now my friend who was going to be the brains behind the operation is moving to TX,so the car has to go.

Dude... I am so tempted to buy the car back. I'll have to think about it/sleep on it. One of the reasons i got rid of it was because I didn't have a place to keep it over the winter so with the winter coming up quick I'd have to figure something out. I'll let you know though.

can you ship it to The challenge?
Or to TX with your friend ?
Yes, will said friend/brains drive car to TX? If so..........
No chance my friend will bring it to TX. He is bring what he has left on a small trailer behind his 2004 Mazdaspeed Miata,so no room for a Metro. Yavuz I have not even changed the title yet,so you could take it back,and not have any worries about the RMV. Let me know I have your phone number still,I will call you later.Oh yeah it is on eBay as well.

I still want but can't justify this car.
Actually the logistics of getting it to Tennessee from MA are more of a problem than anything.
Well, I have a friend here at work who knows a guy in the area. I may be in touch

BRAINS!!!! Zombie want!
seriously though, thats a cool car and a good deal! would make an awesome $2009 car!
Nice paint too!
It was on Ebay up until about 20 minutes ago when Ebay cancelled the auction without any warning due to a non-complying VIN!!!!! I guess my friend putting 111111111 as a VIN was not acceptable after three days on the site. It was up to $600 this moring when I checked it.

Car is still in my yard,and I want to sell it before the snow flys. I can get some pics up tomorrow,and posted on my website.
Can you put up a picture or PM some to me? How much?

I wish I had the room to store it - I'd love to buy it back even though I have no use for it. I'm surprised it still hasn't sold - I remember seeing it on ebay with a bunch of bids on it.
I can absolutely vouch for the car - I had it for a little over a year and the car never gave me any problems. I even drove it through a Massachusetts winter, but I wouldn't recommend doing that unless you're insane.
Somebody pick this car up and put it to good use, its a total riot!!
As for pictures, this is what the car looked like when I sold it... I would imagine it looks pretty much the same now since I know chris hasn't driven it.

Thanks Yavuz,
That is exactly how it looks now,but instead it is in my back yard. I weighed it with the spare,and jack in it,and it tipped the scales at a whopping 1600lbs. The ignition switch needs some help,as a wire broke off of it,and the battery is dead,but both are easyily fixed. The ignition switch is actuated with a screwdriver(provided),and there are no keys for the car what-so-ever. This thing is totally stripped of anything that isn't "needed".

What is the asking price again for this sweet mo-chine? The CL listing is expired.
Not that I have room for another car right now, or any way to get to it.
I just like to torture myself.
If you're seriously selling it for $300, I'm seriously buying a tow dolly!!!!
Serious. I'll take it.

914Driver is super-serial about these offers he makes. a few years ago he dragged an empty tow dolly across ontario in a big-ass blizzard to pick up a non-running corvair station wagon in the detroit area. when offered the opportunity to crash for the night, he just jumped back behind the wheel and hammered home, across OH / PA / NY this time.
the 'vair was also $300, so maybe he's got a thing for that particular price....
Thanx Angry, never thought of that before. Now these folks will think I have a fetish or something.

914.
You can swing by my place and grab the 18ft trailer just bring it back or better yet buy it!

It is indeed $300 you are welcome to come get it 914 Driver,my only request is the next time I am in Lake George I want to come by your stable,and check out your cars.
Stable? OK, but I buy the beer.
Shoot me your address or where the car is; this week OK?
