Default 86.5 on Flea Bay

There is a very nice 86.5 5 sp on eBay. I think it should be on BAT and it's no reserve. I think someone is going to get a bargain deal.

Would make a nice replacement for the dearly departed '85.

the red carpets will work with the red seat piping.
The tan and black will rock with the red exterior and appeal to more new owners.
The air cleaner is upside down and those sure are some shiny washers on the shock strut

I was watching this and spoke with the seller. Car has had previous paintwork he didn’t know how much. There are no paint meter readings. He also just painted the front hood. Stated car hasn’t run since 95’ so he spent some time trying to get it running, hence the recent receipt. He had a recent PPI and said they found a few things not working/ issues which will need to be fixed, such as oil leak from valve covers.

He said the rear end links were bent and he fixed those.

No leak down and compression was done. Seller seems like a decent guy. It is clearly not a time capsule/completely no issues car.

But could be a decent buy, depending on what happens.

This appears to be the pattern selling a car on eBay vs BAT. The sellers seem to be in the dark most of the time or they are hiding something. BAT buyers however would pick it apart and it would most likely it would fetch a fair price.
