Check out what I found in a basement

[mk1spyder]

Rofl, the camera takes AA batteries and everytime they go dead it resets the date. I didn't know I was submitting to the court here lol. Let me go set the date on the camera and take another picture.

Infact i'll do you one better, TRDAddict who is a fellow member on here is coming over from Johnson City, TN to look at it right now. He can take some pictures of it and show you.

The first picture is just at my work, I drove it to work that day and took a picture, sue me lol.

You want me to just take out a loan, buy it from the guy, and then sell it? If that will make everyone happy i'd be more than happy to do it, geeze lol.

I am ready to buy it. Get it posted back up.

 

[mk1spyder]

I'm going to wait to post it back up until TRDAddict comes and checks it out, that way I have indefinite proof of what I say is true. The amount of haters on here is why I quit being an active member of supramania years ago. Then I go out of my way to try to save this thing and put it back in a true enthusiasts hands for a paultry 10% and I just get flamed.

I know it seems weird to the masses but every now and then there are some people that are just nice, and trying to do something good for the supra community.

Edumnds.com put retail on a car such as this at ~$3200, lol. I'd buy a many as I could find at that price!

So TRDAddict just left, we had a great time talking about Toyota's in general. He took a bunch of pictures of the car and was able to point out a few other spots of paint that have been touched up in the past. He thinks they totally repainted the front bumper from the one accident it has had back in 1998. I have a terrible eye for body work so it was nice having him point some stuff out that I can put in the description.

So if anyone else wants to be a flamer and doubt me you can PM him.

Here is the new link with a shorter description per a few requests. My first try at HTML picture loading was a bust so back to the drawing board on that hah. Owner wanted me to add a buy it now price, I doubt anyone has that kind of money in this economy but whatever. You can clearly see by his hopes as to why he wouldn't take our poor offers. I did convince him though that he needed to stick with a no reserve auction to attract more bids, he is confident he will get what he wants though. Funny how a guy that knows absolutely nothing about cars still thinks he knows enough to believe in his own price tag.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong here; but, I think the firewall vin plate was dropped on the 91's and 92's. My 91 doesn't have one.

The data placard should be inside the driver door, in addition to the VIN sticker.

So you drove a car that isn't yours that also doesn't have registration? Not to mention the owner left the keys with the car...


This entire situation doesn't make any bit of sense. At all.

 

[MightyAl]

Who is in current possesion of the title?

 

[Supracentral]

So i've searched and I couldn't find anywhere how you get authorized to sell on here? I've been a member for 6 years now?

Your classified rights were removed here after you fucked that guy over with the jb welded defective motor...

Remember this one?

http://www.supraforums.com/forum/sh...S-Rare-brand-new-800hp-7M-GTE-complete-engine

The one you also had posted here?

http://www.supramania.com/forums/sh...-of-a-kind-brand-new-800hp-7M-GTE-Race-Engine

Fortunately for us, it didn't sell here. It sold at Supraforums. However, after we reviewed this thread:

http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=575026

We revoked your classifieds rights right after that incident. It's a rare moment we penalize someone here for something that happened on another site, but this was so egregious it caused us to act.

That behavior doesn't fly with us. You sold a damaged motor to this guy. Your mechanic admits to damaging it. Anything beyond that is scenery for the masses. Not immediately issuing a full refund is bad enough. But demanding that the buyer pay to ship the motor back to you when you know it was your mechanic which caused the damage in the first place is, in our opinion, fucked up.

But we can't tell you what to do. We can however prevent you from selling here. We don't want to see one of our members suffer through this sort of treatment at your hands, nor do we want to clean up the mess after you mistreat someone like this.

Now you come up with this amazing "barn find" story that has more holes in it than a piece of swiss cheese?

By the way, the DMV records for this car shows it being registered and actively driven earlier this year, with new titles issued in February and again in April:

01/24/2006 FAIR PLAY, SC Motor Vehicle Dept. REGISTRATION EVENT/RENEWAL
01/02/2007 FAIR PLAY, SC Motor Vehicle Dept. REGISTRATION EVENT/RENEWAL
01/16/2008 FAIR PLAY, SC Motor Vehicle Dept. REGISTRATION EVENT/RENEWAL
01/12/2009 FAIR PLAY, SC Motor Vehicle Dept. REGISTRATION EVENT/RENEWAL
01/05/2010 FAIR PLAY, SC Motor Vehicle Dept. REGISTRATION EVENT/RENEWAL
01/05/2011 FAIR PLAY, SC Motor Vehicle Dept. REGISTRATION EVENT/RENEWAL
02/14/2011 SC 110,800 Motor Vehicle Dept. ODOMETER READING FROM DMV REGISTRATION EVENT/RENEWAL
02/21/2011 IVA, SC Motor Vehicle Dept. TITLE (Title #:770040229649435)
04/13/2011 SC 111,780 Motor Vehicle Dept. ODOMETER READING FROM DMV REGISTRATION EVENT/RENEWAL
04/18/2011 SPARTANBURG, SC Motor Vehicle Dept. TITLE (Title #:770870232356606)

And somehow your long abandoned barn find has had 4,000+ miles put on it since it was last titled in April...

Somehow none of this jives with your barn find story...

It's not happening here. Thread closed, OP permanently banned.

And spare me the email about how it's our loss, you just want to see the car with an enthusiast, that you're a nice guy helping some faceless stranger out and that we're a bunch of mean dicks...

Go sell crazy somewhere else, we're all stocked up here.
