i was more amused by his other items for sale.

5.1 surround speakers, over $5k

Brand new still in original boxes.lol (just put back into boxes)

isnt everything these days 6.1 o 7.1 surround?

to his credit tho both items are pickup only so you wouldnt pay a cent unil you seen it in person.

Reading that large font and all in capitals gives me a headache.

Surely if he really want to sell it he would put all the pieces together and make it look as good as possible. Not various in progress pics as presented. I call scammer/bored school holidays kid.

I realize you're pretty new to the forums, but can't understand where your logic and racism is coming from.

Yeah I don't think Glenn was being racist. I and most on here would see his Nigerian reference as the typical scams that continue to come out of that place. You see Nigerian scams on the news and Ebay on a regular basis so its not a dig at their colour or race.

But how do you all come to the conclusion it is such a scam?

It's a "pick-up" ebay sale, he has given 2 contact numbers, he has progress pics and how the car currently looks, etc.

Sounds like he has pumped in alot of money into a project and can't afford to spend more time/money to complete it, therefor he is trying to sell it in "as is" condition.

Would i buy such a car; hell no.

Is it a good price; NO

I could see the humor in how he has placed the ad and his style of English, but this talk of scammer, etc, is just crap and unfounded.

      Rusty roof repair

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.

      I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent.

      Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.

      Rusty roof repair

      By PranK · Posted

      So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
