I can tell you first hand the car's a wreck, when he showed me the car he went "the motor alone is worth $2000." To which I replied, "good...part it out then, maybe you can get some money back"
It's hacked beyond all belief and honestly, even for free I'd pass. It runs like dog ****, if at all. The clutch feels like crap, every gear is notchy beyond belief(probably partly due to the clutch in all fairness but I wouldn't trust it), every single wire, vacuum line, hose, etc is done 150% half assed, and even the starter is wired to a toggle switch because they didn't know how to make it work proberly with the key. The ricer ground kit is installed with self tapping screws, and the fenders are both held by 1 or 2 bolts because they couldn't even tighten those bolts properly without snapping them.
I can't possibly stress how much of a total and utter piece of worthless garbage this car is. I wouldn't piss on it to put out a fire. At one point I told him to insure it for full coverage and let it catch fire...it's bound to if it runs long enough.
Ricer mentality makes guys like this get off on beating domestic cars...but my question is this, if you beat me with a piece of ****, does it make your car anything but a piece of ****** At the end of the day I'd rather go home in a slower, respectable domestic than some fart canned laughable mess of a car. Just my .02
