Several months into it, he's bailing and moving on. That's the biggest problem in this country. Stupid people are allowed to buy cars too....

He says his "intentions" was for a total restoration. I don't think he understands the word restoration.

That guy needs to grow a pair and stick it out like a man.......................just sayin'

He didn't do ****:

"New tires 3. Rebuilt Transmission
4. New fuel tank
5. New wiper motor
6. New Blower motor
7. Rebuilt existing heater core
8. Rebuilt existing radiator
9. New heat and A/C control switch
F Full tune up

11 A/C Repaired and charged with R-12 Refrigerant.

New alternator"

"The car looks good and gets attention everywhere I go with it. If you’re a Mopar person this is a good one as you can see I have already repaired a lot of the usual problems."

Problem is the attention your drawing is the "WTF is the matter with the guy who owns that car" kind and once again, you didn't repair ****.

Then how did it get to this point? Look at it, none of it is restored, its awful custom

Chris, that is why we have an appointment for 2018

I don't believe for a second that his intention was to do a total restoration in the first place. It's just a play on words to generate interest in selling it.

 

[polara71]

He doesnt know what restore means

 

[polara71]

Its not that simple.....

The word "restoration" is used extremely loosely these days. Polara has it right....its a "customization", a tacky one at that but I've seen much, much worse.

If the guy had more money it would be worse.
