You saw that too? I thought it was nice looking aside from the hood UNTIL the explanation/pictures. I'd give him $300 for it, lol.

I saw that cruising the 'bay, too. If someone gives him $3,000 they deserve it, and I'd sell tham a "chip" that will give it +80HP and +25 MPG. He can put it up for $30,000 for all I care :roll:

I did that to my lip too :) It's honestly not as hard as you might think. Plenty of sanding is the key. It's sad to see that car in that state, I think it has/had potential. Are those supra lights? Look rather altezza from what I noticed.

It knocks, probably fucked it up with running that nitrous. I'm sure he knows exactly what happened and just doesn't want to admit it, or oblivious to what can happen runing spray....

Must of cost him a pretty penny for that custom supra taillight conversion...

i sent a message to the seller telling him he was nuts (in a nice way) if he thought he was going to get 3K for the car - of course he wasn't able to take the constructive criticism lightly. LOL
