At that price I literally jumped in the truck and drove over- got there by 3PM, and that one was so roached -dents in hood from someone shutting tools on engine, CEL was DISCONNECTED, ticked like Big Ben, every button worn, BURNED / MELTED fan shroud? (WTF?)|
IT WAS A PIECE OF **** THAT ONE FOR $4600. I got greedy.
_ I didn't even bother to drive it. Russian seller. It WAS the one listed in Hollywood for $2800 a few weeks ago. Same car, same problem, same everything.
I went to this taco shop to get a bite to eat, surfed CL and found THIS one and I called the ad- seller was so fried up with stress, he just lowballed himself-wanted like $8.7 K but then when I called he just flopped- under $6K
I said "Hey if it's as clean as you say? and u have a title that's clean? I'll take it right here, right now..No dickering..."
Seller wouldn't accept a cashier's check from wells fargo with him standing there, and he kept saying "he's broke"- I think someone has seized accounts.
Whatever, bought it, drove to AutoZone got the blower resistor and drove the sucker home.
Got back within 12 hours
now, just gotta fix the sunroof.
