Default great 928 on ebay

well, not the car, but the question about the car. Here it is, with the repsonse:

Q:

hi, you know something, if I was asked to take a 928 porsche and turn it into the ugliest, most obnoxious, most molested, most gutted out 928 on the face of the earth, turning it into something resembling an AMC Pacer from the 70's with an engine compartment that looks like something from a Rambler station wagon hybrid, well I couldn't do it because it's already been done! by you! This car I seriously would not even be seen in driving it down to the crushing yard. I think the only improvement I could make immediately would be to pour around 20 gallons of highly flammable jet fuel on it, light it, and then pour some gunpowder on the flaming ball of fire just to make sure it dies quickly. you need to get your head examined. that is without doubt the result of a meth and vodka fueled 5 day non stop workout with spray paint, crescent wrenches and hammers. just appalling. really.

That is super funny. I am a little curious as to how the car got that way, and am curious as to what that wire dangling from under the bumper is all about. No interior pictures either. too bad.

The response was a little strange but seems to be an easy going one.

The absence of any apparent exit for the exhaust from under the car is concerning....

It is the fuse which you light after jet fuel is poured over the car

Although I'm not a fan of the BB Chevy conversion nor the racing livery, it doesn't look that bad. I've seen much worse done to our 928's.

That was a funny question!.........even though it wasn't a "question"..

Is jet fuel all that flammable? Its like Kerosene isn't it, slightly less flammable than gas. Drying it with gunpowder isn't going to work either. Poster must have been joking.

Jet fuel is flammable but has a high flash point, but the fumes are what go boom quick. Seen it happen; not pretty.

I remember Renegade hybrids from many years ago reading Pano and Excellence.

It's just an old one. I don't see what all the hub bub is about.

I say you guys can "Take Your Porsches and Chev it!"

Their LS conversion 911s are awesome.

I would guess the seller's reply is just outing the guy's ebay user name.

In other words, I think "seahawks4u" is the guy who posted the "question".

Hideous paint job...
