If someone can explain to me what happened to the right rear wheel of DM43K2F260221 on top of that (concrete?) carport floor, I'll be interested -- see pic #4.

Very short description by the CL seller: "Needs to be restored. Does not run. Price is $5,000 cash or best offer." No fender tag, but VIN shot; looks GF3 Amber Sherwood metallic green paint with M4F6 vinyl split-back bench interior.

Driven onto pad some time ago (per sand accumulation) , from a few yards away, while flat.

Tire is "folded" (red arrow) under the wheel. Probably tire damage. Broken bead seal as well I would speculate too .. driven ON that way I think hence the "folding"..

alternative is tire is shredded/torn from a blowout and the part we cant see is "missing" (still could be there but the shredded sidewall is folded under.)

I have moved cars with flat, junk tires and had this happen in front when turning on a flat .. never seen one folded on rear tire .. unless car was listing to starboard when moved/driven a bit with a rear pass. flat/destroyed already.

as to the car, its got issues, prolly a few unknown others, but doesn't appear to be complete basket case. 360 car doesn't get my attention in the MY.,

my $0.02 @ayilar

Looks like a solid car.

Knock a thousand off the price if the front valance is busted up.
