er...yea....

Ifausty: it wasn't exactly like that. The cars were not picked over. They were frozen in time, as if left there many years ago, under a tree, with the windows open. Many generations of rodent families bringing up their young in the engine compartments.

I feel no kinship with the owner. I do feel a bit of sympathy, possibly pity for his mental problems. It is difficult when one cannot see the world for how it is. Their deception was out of desperation. How can you sell anything if no one comes to buy? They were trolling for suckers. Give em a song and dance...Stage a few people to pretend that the cars are "flying out the door" and have 3 or 4 people nod their heads that that is a great price. It was all a performance. The acting was better than most soap operas. I got them on cross referenced questions out of earshot. It is an old cop trick. Besides, You all know how much I think parts cars are worth. What are the chances I will pay 3 times that amount? It also helps to know what things are worth so that when 3 people tell you it is a steal and that these cars are "rare" you can stand your ground. As with most of my dealings.. I leave a card and a standing offer on the back. IF and when they want to pay it...OK.

Besides, anyone who neglects a Porsche like that....No, he is not, and never was an old road salt. These are not his life longs. These are the projects he forgot about years ago. Seriously, these things were junk. He is another one who bought cars at auction and then tried to flip them for a profit. Geee...I wonder why the Porsches didn't work out for him??? Don't cry for the dealer...Cry for the cars.
