RE: [T3] E-BAY CAR


Steering wheel isn't original.  Shifter isn't original.  Relay box appears
to have been moved in to the trunk.  Holes in door panels from previous
stereo system.  Hole in glove box from previous stereo.  Ground cable not
original.  Pin stripes above centerline trim original?  Dealer done, maybe.
Windows tinted isn't original.  And if it's no longer an automatic why keep
the "automatic" badge on the rear hatch?  Rims are after-market and have
wrong offset.  Steering box possibly leaky...on a low mileage car?  Alarm
LED left of ash tray not original.

Alarm, very nice stereo, conversion to manual, all for an undriven car?
Sounds fishy to me.  In the background I'm seeing Mercedes, BMW and Ferrari
(and maybe a Porsche?)...then a lowly VW Squareback?  Huh?

Price far too high with reserve not met...get real!

An apparently nice car otherwise, if the price were reasonable (<$4000) it
would make a very easy resto and a good clean driver (again, why convert to
manual?).
