I habitually buy project cars or cars that have been sitting and if it's from a friend, I always tell them that they could get more from someone else if I think it's the case. If it's a stranger, I will also tell them this, depending on the circumstances. The answer is almost universally, "I don't care. I want it gone."

The internet is a strange place and you should have anticipated some of the responses here. Enjoy the car!

He stated "moral compass" and this is what I found very confusing. I understand the seller was just wanting it gone and he was in the right place / time. It happens. No big deal but you have to wonder about the moral compass statement when you first read his post. No one attacked the monkey here.
Get over it.
