My (personal) problem with thinking this is pretty cool,
(other than the sooo tired) : "If It ONLY wassnt wink wink on the LeFt Coast haharr .. more like "If I wasn't just a dreamer/internet racer, and I lived in same same neighborhood as the seller, and he took bitcoin, and and the guy cut price in half..., and if I had somewhere to keep it, and I had a real toolbox full of real banged up/greezy spanners to work on it, and if I had balls enough to drive something less han perfect... but no. ..and yadda blah yadda.. "then I'd lowball the guy, and then fuck yeah, I'd brag on some forum somewhere that I STOLEZ it and yeahh.. "n ff: "....then after 9 years I'd bitch cause it wasn't still 100% FIA legal, never actually do anything with it.." and get my money back at BarrettJackson in spades.. hell, $3k back in 2015 is like, one whole camel now, plus some Yen to get a burka bikini for the 'ol Lady... yeah man, kewl. kewl. " GLWS!!! -Jester Bullshit Lurker, Jr. ____________ lmao. ____________________ eek. wait a sec. * This opening statement, by the (I'm assuming, but it is Portlandia ) Gentleman, states the reason for sale : "I have a new project on the way and the wife says I can only have one." - get. new. wife... , or get wife a racecar. Or something. She obviously tolerates that car, so maybe stack them vertically or something~ get creative man.. keep car, upgrade wife or storage capacity. A Good car cover and some urgency is cheeper than new car,? I hope. I once kept a car project in a garage until they impounded it and tow bill /storage from city was a fraction of what the storage would have been... then took car to different long-term storage... did that for a year and came out better that a stotre-it-yerself bill for 12 months. I liked it. This is just unacceptable to me that there are PNW racer-men living under these gastly conditions... just horrible <shakes head and wrinkled forehead> and also troubling to me is this next statement by the seller : " I've owned this car for the last 5 years and it has been garaged almost the whole time. .. " - well I can relate to that... nonetheless, that is always sad if your only project and you don't work 80 hrs a week delivering granola on your bicycle or hacking NORAD, or a Logger with Nike boots, or a hootowl watcher or whatever this dude does lol .. and that doesn't go with statement #one at all. Only one project and no touch in 5 years, ouch. Hope the incoming car is 2015 legal braaa. lol. My wife is from Oregon you Duckmen, so take a joke and don't start the flaming me or I'll put a shirt and shoes on and we can have an internet-tractor-pull. Wilson, you certainly have a knack for finding shit I like : WVK: Internet Rallye Project Consultant. Match.rallycar  Edited 5 time(s). Last edit at 01/31/2015 08:52PM by Yellowhammer. |
