WARNING: Damaged Silver 98 GTS on Ebay

[Viper Specialty]

Hi Guys,

Dodge : Viper - eBay (item 150541765736 end time Jan-10-11 18:45:00 PST)


DO NOT buy this car unless you plan to use it for parts, or get it for an absolute song. This car is riddled with damage, it was a local car, and has been seen in person. The fact that he claims 2500.00 in damage is LAUGHABLE. There is more than 2500 in PAINT, let alone the body work, construction, frame damage, exhaust, and all of the body panels that would need to be replaced. For a truly quality repair, you are looking at 15-20K on that car, NOT including the hood or rear tub, which I am told, are structurally damaged beyond what the pictures show.

great heads up. thanks dan.

Just saw the car on ebay. It`s funny but there are not any pictures of the damage under the car. Exhaust system looks like it took a lot of damage. Hmmm, I wonder what`s hidden on the underside?

Dan, you are right on the money on this one!

 

[mbccenter]

I saw that it needed a lot more damaged then the seller said. How can anyone buy a car when the sell is not telling the truth. Who knows what else is wrong... It is not worth even close to where the bid is now. Good warrning Dan

im gonna be in rochester tuesday, i might go see if i can buy the fascia...lol

anyone wanna split this car up with me ?

 

[my viper]

"parts are $2500-3k" lol

 

[moparracing]

that car took a beating.... the hood & nose seem to be the only things that weren't messed up.

 

[musclenutz]

Thanks for looking out for other possible buyers.

Please destroy it before it ends up in the UK

At least the guy's honest with his pics. Not a straight line shown, poor thing.


(If any of you guys buy this wreck.... I'm in need of some nice condition rim hub centercaps.... gen 2.....)

 

[speedracervr4]

Pretty obvious by the pictures it's not worth anything.

 

[DrumrBoy]

As a parts car its probably worth 8-10 right?

 

[plumcrazy]

dibs on the hood and fascia...

You dont want the hood... it was crushed on the passenger side.

CAR RUNS AND DRIVES FINE

I like the overstatement! There are too many people (even car stealerships) out there without any integrity any more...

Car took out a tree and telephone pole..Rear frame rail's are bent BAD!

 

[JohnnyViper]

yikes, the things people try to get away with and the nerve to ask 17K for it

 

[TAXIMAN1]

You guys are all wrong. I know a guy who can repair this for $2500.. You know, the ones who knock on your door with a tub of Bondo and a puddy knife in their hand, asking if you need any "body work" done? LOL... Lets get er done.

 

[Phun70]

It's bid up to 15000.00!!?!?!!!

 

[mbccenter]

Now it is up to 17k.... Maybe a car is worth more damaged?

I wish there was a way to post a link to this thread in the auction somehow. Does Ebay still make the "questions" people email visible to everyone in the listing?

Only if he seller wants them to be part of the listing, otherwise he can choose to respond in private. Someone should choose "list similar item" and state the true facts of the car in a parallel auction, and put 'This car is listed elsewhere on Ebay with a number of false and fraudulent statements, so I reserve the right to not sell to an informed buyer if an uninformed/deceived one offers more"

With a little internet 'connect the dots' i came up with a phone number that led me here. Wrecks are his thing.
