This one really looks like he bought out a junk yard, there isn't a body there that has not been cut on. I hope he was able to sell off the good stuff, because what he has is not the good stuff.

Looks like there is a Carrera cabriolet body............wonder what the vin is.

The shipping costs from the Netherlands to Adam at Unobtanium or Jim at EASY would kill them. I wonder what, if anything, was held back in this sale. Adam has already looked it over, and he doesn't sound too excited...

I believe this is the third time it's been listed. The first time had a buy-it-now price of $175,000. That's a lot for a pig in a Dutch poke.

I have seen the pile in person, all bodies are coupes.

They were really eager to sell as a lot, think they have had it with people hanging around and asking questions.

All the good parts are long gone.

Peter-
There is nothing worse than the feeling like you arrived at the party just a little too late...
Or in this case, long after the good parts are gone.
