----Could the flipper just wipe the dust off the engine? A quick vacuum might help as well. If you can't bother to do anything, I'm not interested,,,period!....Bill S

Wow, I imagine the original owner's family was hoping it would go to someone who would cherish it for a while the way their dad did. They probably weren't counting on it being flipped for a profit. Oh well, free country. At least he didn't LS swap it.

Flipper most certainly could've been more respectful to PO's family than a quick resale but online info suggests he's otherwise a regular car guy also TC Member, kids' baseball coach etc.
Looks like a great car, best of luck anyone who can land it now.

If you don't do your due diligence as a seller you can except for most anything to get "flipped".

Like I said, it's a free country - once they own it, they can do pretty much whatever they want with it. Hopefully it won't end up overseas where so many other musclecars have gone.

----I think of a flipper as someone who doesn't have a dealers license. I probably would be termed a flipper at different times in my life, but I at least had the decency to clean a car completely and fix what I could and make the car better than when I bought it. It just seems like common sense......Bill S

Before I pass judgment, did you unload the cars from the trailer before you took pics for your sale ads?

----No, That never happened. I feel that I have made every car I have ever had better. The percentige of better would vary of course!....Bill S
