Looks like a hell of a deal to me. Why is everybody busting his balls over the wheels that came on the car? They obviously CAME on the car, and he just got it. Maybe he hasn't had the time to go out and choose the wheels he absolutely has to have yet...

That is a clean shell for 200 bucks man, not gonna lie, i would have snatched that up even if i couldn't afford to fix it up just cause it was so cheap. Good buy, and goodluck with the swap. Should be a fun project!

looks like a good deal

kinda a shame you did all that work to your current fox... why did you decide to swap? find some nasty rust on your car??

I remember your frame rails being.... non-existant....

yup, this is all that was left of where the K member bolted up.



here you can see how much cancer i was forced to cut out




basically i felt like i was fighting a never ending battle with this rust. also with the fix it job I did works for sure, but i doubt it would pass any kind of safety inspection IMO. i dont know what would qualify passing a safety inspection. however in any case, the car is solid... yes there was some more and i was planning on fixing it all this winter....


...but then i said screw it and start over with something in better condition. this deal just happened to fall into my lap. he originally wanted 1000 for it, then asked 500 for it on craigslist. i told him wait till the 30th and i'd come get it. he emailed me back and said "get it this weekend and its yours for 200" lol!!
