Mate. Write what you want, but you know exactly what you sold me. My own fault for believing you. Congrats, you're a talented salesman. Keep up the good work.
I'd like to think that mine is really niceShow me a really nice $4K D1. I would love to see it. Seriously, post it up.

i've already emailed him with some awesome hipster requests.
1996 D1 totally stock. About 80k miles. No rust. Paid $4,800 in 2016. See members trucks. However, agree they are getting harder to find. Wife wanted red and that took more time to locate as well.

Elias,
A hipster request would be something like this:

Hey man,
My organic taco hotdog fusion restaurant is raking in the dough and I think you are as creative and original as me so I'm totally down to do a truck order.
I am all about your product concept, but can we put some exhaust filtration on it to be eco friendly, and maybe make it run on biodiesel?
I would also like the paint to be an eco friendly plant based product, and want to re-do the interior with all organic hemp trimmings. My taco-dog fusion restaurant is very environmentally conscious and I want my custom truck to be as well.
Would you be willing to meet me at Urban Outfitters to do some color pallet searching? Im all about incorporating hip fashion trends into everything I do. We can maybe talk about putting a record player in the truck if possible, I live for my vinyl collection.
Also my pronoun is Them.
Thank you so much!
Sincerely,
"Rad Hipster"

Your attempt at trolling is so poor its almost as embarrassing as your website. Hipsters tend to be good at grammar, using capitalization to start sentences, and maintain an intense focus at incorporating hipster bullshit and trends into all aspects of everything they do. Take note of my fake hipster response I just came up with for you. Now I admit its a bit over the top, but toned down I would have probably responded. I've met my fair share of well funded hipsters living the dream and hoping every tattoo helps them forget they come from wealth.
To mess with someone on the internet its best to try to sell your "target" on you and your bs so that said target will engage you and get entrenched in something they believe is serious. Makes for lots of LOLs if done well. When I read your response I considered making a burner email and trolling you back just to get a good laugh watching you try to be funny, not knowing I'm doing to you what you sought to try on me.
But seeing that you got such a hard on that someone randomly posted on craigslist soliciting services you aren't competent enough to offer, I must admit at this point I wish I did troll you back. So I will now. Your glamour shot on your crappy website is the perfect backdrop to share your witty and clever "hipster" email with. Hard to believe its that guy standing there who gets all giddy sending out an email that reads like a stoned teenager trying to talk crap through a headset on a video game.
Oh ya, that license plate from your RRC, I just couldn't help myself. How many times has someone asked you if you own BEEG the porno website? Certainly someones said "hey surfer bro, can you give me a BEEG" and done a jacking motion towards their mouth while you both sit at a red light.
Maybe I'm being too mean here, we can be friends if you're available to shoot some Hollywood quality off road videography for me. I'd love an off road high def flick of me getting a beeg in front of that license plate. I'm sure the guys at BEEG would be super stoked seeing their fan club leader's eponymous license plate used in a real live off road porno shoot.
What a fun first post. You tried to unleash a troll storm on me Elias. I'd say that entirely backfired. Keep on Beeging brah.

Brutal, but you haven't addressed the issue. Have you any examples of your work?
I like that garage!
Not the D1 in your garage. Show me a really nice $4K D1 for sale
I have no examples of the proposed product vehicle. I've managed a fleet with in house maintenance and fab and executed many Class 8 vocational truck body and drivetrain builds. Built structures and structural features / components that are one off or bespoke. I also did swap some axles and re power a few trucks while in college. That advertisement was more of a market research study than anything else.
I am a Developer, General Contractor, and R.E. Consultant. I've taken on a project that started as a contracted development / build and turned into a partnership of sorts. I'm building a used car dealership with a 4 bay fabrication and repair shop with additional warehouse space. On my land, and traded development fees for partnership interest.
I've never gentrified a neighborhood without good market research. You can't blindly go and Granite and Marble up a shithole neighborhood before you troll hipsters and make them beg for great value high end living they can't afford, that doesn't even exist yet. Peg their interest, build it, and remind them that without local violence you promise to protect them from. They beg because their Fortune 500 kitchen and bath don't exist at their pay rate elsewhere. Create their posh new awesomeness in former shithole, in an area they feared. I used to spend countless amounts of time and effort in this hobby, and couldn't jump back into the automotive realm without buying 3 D1's and countless other parts for a pet project and still sleep at night not knowing if I've somehow forgotten the game.
When I front on an auto industry investment I'll do the same conceptual and design research in the exact same manner. I'm not fishing for dollars, but NYC is a good market to gauge interest in a loose money type of product. Yes a prototype is almost ready for paint. No TDV8 with 'stang 6sp but a fully restored Arles blue B&W compound twin turbo Merc diesel and 5sp into a fully restored and rebuilt D1. 95 titled, 49 state legal. Working airbags and ABS.
I saw what ECD has to offer and just figured fuck it. Top dollar for pushrod Chevy's and bling aesthetics is no different than beating my normal competition using hardwoods and engineered design methods.
