Well now, that was interesting. I called the seller, and he got really insulted when I told him some of the specifics of the work needed (primarily engine, shimmy, and brakes). No response to it running on two cylinders, so perhaps he was withholding information. He became a little hostile and said that I was, "obviously looking for a show car." I laughed and said, "no, we didn't even discuss it needing paint." What really irked me is that I KNOW show cars, and this obviously wasn't one.
Didn't even ask me what I wanted to offer for the car, only that he thought his car was worth his reserve and that he wouldn't take less. His next response was he'd call the next person in line because some guy has been "bugging him about it all day" , and then call ME if that falls through.
