This is a hilarious eBay auction for a car...

A General Discussion forum for cars and other topics, and a great place to introduce yourself if you are new to NICO!

I haven't laughed so much in a long time:

I especially like the "...overheating, pig-handling, self-immolating rustbuckets..." part of the ad. Nothing like a series of colorful metaphors, as Spock would put it, to brighten your day. :D

I'd buy it, it'd be fun to poke around it. Heck, it'd even be fun to restore and frighten people with "wtf is that?" Take that V8 and make it worthwhile and figure someway to hold the body together (ie, duct tape) and voila! You have a V8 monster!

The dash alone with the original jaeger gages would be worth twice that amount.

Some day our Qs will reach this stage and we will be able to sell a working set of relays for thousands.
