Rebuilt 3.6 for $5800?

Not that I'm in the market, but this seems awfully cheap:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2445315784&category=33615

Being the eternal pessimist, I'm wondering what could be wrong with it.

BTW, I have no association with the seller; I was just out surfing.

7 Negative out of 54 total. As ebay feedback goes, that is really bad.

Speculation is worth nothing--if someone is serious they should bid on it contingent on a competent mechanic's inspection. It may be a great deal or may not--only one way to tell--call him out.

is it me or does the engine compartment opening (red painted sheet metal) look bent in the lower right side of one of the pictures? Look just below (in the picture) the a/c compressor. Looks as though the car was bent....

Three of the complaints were from the same guy on the same day.

Not to mention that the early 964s have a lot going against them even if perfect.
