Scammy McScamster?

$2,200 for fine German steel.  Well that's what your wife might reach for if this real and you bring it home. devil

Oh yeah forgot to mention that I know it's over budget but now that I think about it what exactly could you sell to bring it under and make it fun for the challenge?  doh. blush

Over budget yes, but he says don't offer $1500!

Want to follow along with my parting out cars thread? Get it for $2k, looks like selling the wheels, headlights, and sideview mirrors would recover 100% of your investment. Then either make an entertaining Challenge car out of it or make money parting the rest.

Sell the wheels and tires and buy a cheaper set of wheels.  First set of tires doesn't count against budget. 

What's the story with trades?  Could you trade the seller a golf cart you bought for $1500?

I'm curious what people think a "good tune up" is in situations like these.

 

If they mean driveability  problem diagnosed and repaired, sure.  But it's not like a set of spark plugs and and points adjustment would solve any problems in that motor.

As a former BMW owner, the only reason I'd touch that one is to part it out
