Car for sale for parts

[CompassMike]

I have a 2003 M45. Just had a tree limb fall on it. 160,000 miles, broke windshield, broke back window, broke sun roof, damage on roof and trunk lid. Anyone out there looking for a car for parts. Mike [email protected]

Since this is your first post, please post pictures of the car (with a piece of paper that has your username, date, and NICO on it). This is because, no offense, no one knows you.

Thank you.

Out of curiosity, I've seen people do this before but I don't understand the purpose. How does this help, secure, or validate anything?

It validates that they in fact own the car (in most situations). Same for the date. Basically, it helps prevent scammers who could just Google an image of a car and post it up saying "Hey, send me money for this this and this and I'll send you the parts. Here's a pic of the car."

By providing the pictures with his username, date, and this forum name...we basically guarantee he's a real person who owns or has access to said car .

Thank you, sir. I appreciate it. I don't mean be rude, but I'm sure you can understand the precautions. Especially after we just had a member on this forum scammed (which ended up getting worked out).

Ok. Thanks. What tires are on the wheels and how much tread is left?

[TDot]

Understood.

[CompassMike]

2 fairly new back tires good years. Two older but good tires on the front. No spare.

Did you host the image on the internet somewhere?

One you do, that site should provide you with a file link for the image...you then just put that link within two [img]and[/img].

Code: Select all
