Just emailed that to my friend who has over $20,000 into his B14 200SX SE-R w/ an SR20DET swap that still isn't running.

Why isn't the turbo hooked up? That intake hose goes right to the throttle body.

I'm digging the part where he says it's the "rare green color" - I'm pretty sure that's the most common color they made on those things. Also digging the stock rebuilt engine with a turbo slapped on. Yeah, F22's handle SOME boost stock, but 10 psi is gonna pop that head gasket pretty quick.

It actually probably isnt that one now that I think about it the one I saw was a Tomohawk/Rhinelander one, but it was around 4000.00 or so and it was up for like a day before it dissapeared. I remember because I saw it at work and was going to throw it up on here and by time I got around to doing it it was gone.

We've been casually batting around the idea at work of putting together a 4-wheel test platform for our electric motorcycle drive train. I'm trying to lobby to use a small vintage car for that purpose. That Fiat Sport Coupe looks great and we could toss the 850!

Large trees of any kind are, if they're transplantable, and particularly in areas without a lot of naturally-occurring trees, as valuable as a beater 50cc scooter.

That does not look like a large tree.

Hm, true.. I sent him an email saying I had a 50cc Yamaha scooter (which I do, though it is currently waiting on new rings, etc. to come in the mail) I would be willing to trade for his tree (hell, why not), but I am quite worried about owning such a large tree that appears to be growing sideways. Perhaps if the tree could be rotated 90 degrees...

Every person on the planet who wants to start a s30 project manages to find the perfect starter z with no rust and perfect compression, I end up slogging through Houston CL looking at $6k money pits wondering where all those drat cars come from.

Yeah. With cars, I don't bother even considering them on CL unless they have a phone number.

Is it rare?
Is it in good condition?
Is it priced low?
Do the pictures appear to be professional or stock?
Do the pictures show a fully detailed car?
Are there no license plates in the pictures?
Is there no phone number in the ad?
Is the ad an image (to make it non-searchable)?
Does the ad include a complete list of features that appears to have been copy-and-pasted from a Wikipedia page?
Does the ad include pictures that don't match the feature descriptions?

These are the basic questions that you should always be asking yourself when you're looking at Craigslist ads. I tended to assume that you all did that, but this is not the first time I've had to say, "Hey, that's not gold, it's a blatantly obvious scam."

So, if you answered "Yes" to more than 2 or 3 of those questions... run. If you answered yes to even one of the bold questions, you should probably still run.

It's not a "RX-7 Specialist". It's a "RX-7 Specialist?". So the dude doesn't know if he is or isn't a specialist :)
