See... you need to plan ahead. You purchase a 4dr. so that when you do have kids you dont have to get rid of it. 1 Link to comment

GaryDagat Posted April 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Well I have heard it did go threw a few owners in a short time, if he wasn't willing to take a loss because of the repairs that need to be made then he will never sell it. I didn't actually make him an offer so i'm not exactly sure what price he would go down to... but just by my estimates assuming he's got: 1. surface rust on all floor panels 2. early stages of rust rot on the rear trunk 3. rust rot inside the cracks where the fiberglass flares are separating between flares and the main body. so its basically calls for potential moderate body work and full repaint so i'm thinking that would set things back about $3000 or more... long story short i don't think he'd be willing to take something like 6K as an offer so... i told him i'd pass on his sale.

izzo Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 Cali car probably only surface rust under vinyl. Car looks taken care of. Spendy tail lights. Link to comment
GaryDagat Posted April 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 Cali car probably only surface rust under vinyl. Car looks taken care of. Spendy tail lights. just spoke to the guy... did the engine swap himself in like 2007, confirmed rust under vinyl roof and in trunk but not too many details after that... strange though.. i asked him if he had done engine swaps before because people on ratsun/510realm were all telling me that if i get a swapped car i'd want all the receipts and want to make sure someone reputable did the work... but he said he's only done a couple and it was all easy just a few bolts :P ... i was like huh? anyways either the swap is really easy or he is an awesome mechanic..
