GP99GT 09-21-2007 03:56 PM

its not normal.....this is a SATURN were talking about

baddest434 09-21-2007 04:02 PM

does it run? that thing looks in pretty good shape for 400 bucks. i'm trying to make out where the license plate says.

Z28Justin 09-21-2007 04:50 PM

oh its here in south jersey, iv already seen it. it runs fine the guys dad bought it new, daily drove it until he died and now its sat in a garage since but those old air cooled vw's never die. the interior is perfect so I'm probably gonna gut it any way and sell all of the interior parts to pay for the bus. and the reason its so cheap is its my dads friends and he just filed bankruptcy and needs money bad and just wants it gone.

deadtrend1 09-21-2007 05:54 PM

paint it like the A-team van. it would confuse people!

12secondv6 09-23-2007 05:38 PM

Nothing wrong with it.

I automatically thought teenage mutant ninja turtles!!!!

WayFast84 09-23-2007 05:41 PM

and you MUST paint a flag on the roof. doesn't much matter which, although the stars and stripes would look good regardless of the color of the rest of it.

bobb1589 09-23-2007 07:59 PM

id pay more than $400 for that...

DaSkinnyGuy 09-23-2007 08:29 PM

it needs drag tires in the rear and skinnes in the front

Z28Justin 09-26-2007 05:03 PM

ok brought it home today, haven't tried to start it yet I'm gonna go out later and get it started and make sure it drives and stops then ill start the sanding for paint. hopefully it will be at fudds in 2 weeks with its new paint.
