This guy beats Ferraries! I don't know, seems like a bit of money for the car, but I guess it has a lot of stuff.

wow, the bidding got high on it...this I do not, and never will understand:



The car runs and drives, however my mechanic said the water pump seal is failing ($25 in parts), so car should not be driven long distances. I'm recommending that the car be towed or trailered. Thats another good reason to get the extra motor



Why the **** wouldnt you just put the $25 water pump in the car?

The guy does a full turbo conversion but doesnt want to put a water pump in before he sells the car? I say the engine is shot and overheats, so I will now raise the bullshit flag because of the water pump remark, lol

I just noticed this, lol I hope the guy did that stripe himself, because if any body shop did that they should be forced to close down.



Nice stripe *******!

That guy is a total bullshitter. There is NO freakin way his car would be so fast the way he has it. He has a stock ECU with a SAFC and 720 cc secondaries. Those wouldn't support much more than 300 HP. People are stupid to even believe him. I know my turbo convertibles. He has NO ENGINE SHOTS!!!

But he will throw in a "big racing turbocharger" if you act now, lol.



Then this will be the view everyone sees of the car.... I dont know if I hate the stripe more coming or going

Oh yeah, he also says that a similar car sells for $30,000. I'm guessing he means the Mariah Motorsports Convertible with the full body kit and a full turbo conversion. Yes, exactly like his car.:smirk:

If he races with that setup then the car is a time bomb.

this whole thing has you very disturbed...

dont worry, Ill sell your car on Ebay for a bazillion dollars

Description something like this:

"this car once had a racing engine and drivetrain in it, this car once had about 500hp, all you have to do is throw a engine in and go racing"
