    BBCC will probably buy it, call it a barn find and ask $10k for it

    That's more like 10,000 projects.

    It's the car built just ahead of mine (55057). Didn't it sell for like $5k last year on eBay? I watch it every time it pops up. Honestly, I'd like to have it. Make a grill or couch out of it. Hmmm.

    Normally they use an entire "end" for a sofa, so, TWO couches there!

    Tail lights are $400 each, though

    The seller has no history. I bet it's a scam.

    A scam? How come? Do you think it's overpriced? Could you imagine having to go pick that poor thing up... :)

    P.S. No reserve! $500 so far. What tail lights?

    The only things of even questionable value are the number plates. Cut them out and trash the rest.

    Exactly my thoughts. Someone has a clean VIN for sale there. I guess that comes from being born in Oakland.

    Project car? This thing isn't even a parts car. Yeah, make it into a sofa, that's about it.

    I bid $7.49 on it a couple weeks ago... Was the top bidder for a day or so.

    There must be some salvageable parts from it... The right front rim, rubber protectors for rear bumper, etc.

    I'd consider if it's local.

    Wow... I can't believe it... it's even worse than my car when I bought it! And I thought I was crazy... it's still cheaper, though...

    Is that a VW Camper van rear axle?

    I was thinking of you when I saw the car and was thinking there was not even enough left for you to justify a purchase. How is your project coming along?

    Hey there, Jonny! Project 37313 is awaiting for the last suspension bits I got last december. Due to the weight, they're coming by boat... and shipping was delayed until mid february because not enough "stuff" was gathered in order to fill up a complete container. Hopefully, they'll arrive by the end of April/ beginings of May. I plan to have it landed on its own wheels by the end of the year, and move into bodywork during 2017. We'll see ;-)

    It is a fraud listing.

    Either the year or VIN is wrong.

    A frog listing or a fraud listing? Frog? Fraud? I think we're on the same page :)

    1980 VINs did not start with a '5."

    My NOV '80 build date '81's VIN started with a '3.'
