Default Anyone near tidewater Virginia know this car?

http://http://norfolk.craigslist.org/cto/2498732078.html

Dropped $5k in 5 weeks

I'm visiting family in DC in a month, could have family member
Pick it up and have it waiting for me to use during stay and either drive it back or ship it.

I have access to use shop here in Texas. So minor issues not big deal. Even have some experience with 911 engines.

If it runs well enuf, better than a Hyundai rental car :-)

Thx,

Mike

Probably has a leaky engine needing a reseal/rebuild.

That is what I figure -- but that's not a big issue to me.

Just knocks some $$ of the price :-)

I'm getting pretty good at tearing into 964 3.6L ;-)

Just pulled the heads off my interim race engine this morning.

Seller responded to one of my email inquiries (I had emailed several times with no reponse,
and called on Friday) I emailed one more time tonight referencing the phone calls.
He asked which car I was referring too -- odd.... but it had an aol address that had a name
in it.

I did an internet search:

Someone posted on similar CL list that possible seller has sketchy past dealings.....

From Yahoo.....
