Ebay: What is not right about this turbo?
So who can spot the problem with this ad?

The front is a shot of an NA, but just to the left is another blk p-car -- isn't that the actual car? -- it does have the turbo sticker [on the pictures shown], but the turbo air intake is NOT in the engine picture either -- though from the picture it is difficult to tell whether there is actually no turbo.
If the dude misrepresented the car -- smoly hokes! -- he's in for a bit of legal trouble! However, I must get one of those 'power' rear hatches!

I suspect you're right. I e-mailed the guy just to give him a heads-up. He ran a car fax on the VIN and it comes up a turbo. At the price, he will need to be doing some work on it. I told him about the board, so we'll see about the car if he reports back. It is certainly a risky way to buy a P-car.

you have to wonder about a guy selling a car.....and not even knowing what his front end looks like?
..and blackfoot was right....no abs in 86. and someone just went and bought it..... should be interesting.
