i just got my vert today. Will have more pics up tomorrow when i get my rims on it. I paid $700 for it because the top end needs rebuilt. Still not a bad price i think. Everything works.

Thanks everyone, and no its not stolen, interior isnt in bad shape one little hole in the carpet and like a real small tear in the dash. Everything else is in good condition. I plan on coming home today after work and getting more pictures and putting my rims on it.

I see them, but have no clue why someone would leave those on there. Scary, but I'm guessing its holding the line on the caliper. Either way I'd get new lines (go ahead with the braided all around since you'd have to bleed anyway). Possibly need new caliper too, depending on why the line isn't staying on (assuming that's what's going on).

Looks good! Are you sure the top is the only thing wrong? 700 is crazy. Makes me think the owner knew something

I want those rims in silver or pewter. Any ideas of what kind and where to find them?

Great car BTW. The best $700 you probably ever spent.

They are SportMax 962. They have become very popular for the 240 crowd because they have a nice lip and they are very inexpensive. The only downside is that they are very heavy. But since most of our 'verts are cruisers and not racers.. it's ok.

Here's a set on ebay..http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ZWDVW
