If you're one of those people who thing electric cars are gonna takeover, I can see internal combustion becoming the new VHS. Then, prices would be *really* cheap!

If electric takes over all that's going to happen is the cheap poo poo nobody cares about (i.e. all the millions of CUVs) are going to stay cheap and the stuff that's already expensive (Miatas etc) are going to shoot even more vertically upward in value. Internal combustion is jumping right into "vinyl sounds better maaaaan" mixed in with the aesthetic idolization of cassette tape.

I predict c5 corvettes climbing up in value soon enough. More so than they already do right now.

slidebite posted:I've always liked C5s. Aesthetically my favourite modern gen other than the current. Too bad about the 1993 Grand Am interiors, but I could probably live with that. I thought my C5 looked really nice once I put C6 wheels on it. But yeah that interior is beyond help.

Yeah it's pretty bad how much of a C5s interior would look right at home in my 1994 cavalier, was a big problem for GM that I'm not sure they ever solved since I haven't actually ridden in a newer one any time recently

Wouldn't be embarrassed to give somebody a ride in either.

super nailgun posted:I'm curious how this one came to be non-op... Probably lunched a critical part like a transmission or something and from the paintball splatters it appears it's been used as a training obstacle on a range. The interior will have been destroyed by that and coupled with an unidentified catastrophic mechanical failure that offlined it you're straight up gambling by bidding on this thing.

Maybe Fish and Wildlife or Interior or something else outdoorsy. It undoubtedly had a hard life and was thrashed to death. Something major failed and it was cheaper to dump it than fix it.

Bonus points for putting on a FD style front bumper. Rotary engine Rob Dahm style is optional.

There is a video of rotary powered Corvette on YouTube. Sorry I can't search for it right now. but the dude spends most of his time trying to troll Corvette owners. I'll spoil it for you, nobody cared. Other than people in a comments of course

When presented with the option of either wood paneling or skull paneling this guy chose the classier version. https://www.facebook.com/groups/716OnlineYardSales/permalink/3547868515317524/?sale_post_id=3547868515317524 Fortunately hes "just moving on" so his loss is your gain. Get this sweet ride that still has a whole two whole days to drive around scott free before the inspection is due.

Ah yeah I was thinking it got caught up in some protest action but training makes more sense. The ones that got hosed up on the street are probably still tied up as evidence. Or just got fixed up and are back in use. super nailgun fucked around with this message at 06:15 on Apr 30, 2021 |
