Ebay used to be a better (not best) indicator of market prices, assuming the car was not re-listed after. You knew what user ID's were bidding, and it was possible to spot shills. Now, it's 100% a mystery. Not that random people don't also bid without having the money to indeed buy the car. *sigh*.

This car was being advertised on Craigslist this week for 3300 bucks. I went to check it out and you would be best to avoid it. It is a piece of junk. It was painted poorly on the front clip and the doors recently.  I think maybe hiding an accident of some sort as the core support and frame on the passenger's side look a bit wavy. The paint on the rear quarters and roof looked oxidized but appeared to have been repainted at some point in the car's life as well because there is overspray from a bad tape job around the windows.  It would not stay running whan I tried to test drive it, the antifreeze looked like mud, and the interior looked like it needed a bath. Obviously, the car sold for 4 grand on Ebay and the guy went to pick up the car and told him it was not worth the winning price. I wasted my trip as the car was mis-represented. Don't make the same mistake. The owner was rude when I picked his car apart also. He seems to think he has gold. I offered him 2 grand and I was being generous.

I was hoping everyone here could read between the lines with my posts so they had a better idea on things before going to look at it.  Sorry for not being detailed but I had reason for it.
