Freaking spelling and punctuation... How is it that adults are so confused with the use of apostrophes? The whole possessive vs. plural seems to puzzle quite a few.

Sounds like my dad when he was trying to sell his old house: but I put 6 gallons of paint at $22.50 a gallon on it. And I painted the deck and repaired a $6.98 board and even if I only paid myself minimum wage I still spent 43 hours on it....

and so on and so forth trying to justify why he thinks it should be listed higher than the realtor....

Now with this car ever since 2004 the previous owner and I have been buying brand new parts and accessories for this car due to it being discontinued. All of these extra parts are going to be sold with the car and all have to go together. These parts are all new and I also have older parts that were taking off the car and replaced. The list below list all parts and prices that will come with car,

1 brand new tinted sunroof - $145
1 old sunroof that has a tear in the rubber weather stripping - $145
2 new headlights - $499.99 (each)
1 old headlight - $499.99
Brand new leathers for driver and passenger - $200
New center console top - $39.99
2 brand new armrest - 61.99 (each)
Brand new floor mats - $149.95
New cargo liner - $269.95
Brand new carpets - $85
Stock wheel lugnuts - N/A
Variety of badges and emblems - $100
Spare tire cover - $45
Windshield wipers and caps - N/A
Steering wheel - $94.99
Rear tail lights - $139 (each)
These are just the main parts but there are more parts. If you're serious I can send the details and specs on them.

A couple of things have been converted such as the ashtrays into coin holders. All of the LED lighting auxiliary's have been wired and fixed into the stock switches and buttons. Behind the glove box out of site is an override chip which allows for auxiliary, brights, front bumper, and headlights to all be on at once.

There is a couple flaw's with this car that you will get with any other older car. These flaws are there is body rust (not too bad) on the underbody of the car due to it being owned in Ohio. But there is no visible rust or cosmetic problems anywhere on the body panels on the car. The sunroof over the driver and passenger side sometimes gets locked up but the sunroof still opens. The tracks for it just need to be greased.

Serious buyers only do not waste my time or lowball the car is amazing and you won't find another one like this. You can contact me at show contact info for fastest response. I need this car sold asap so don't be scared to offer a price.

You wont find another one like this... over 25k into this not including parts. This is the best of the best and you wont find another disco like it!"

So much fail.

The guy is a douche, but I'd buy it for 8 grand tomorrow. Damn D2s are pulling me back.

Edit: Sudden clarity - Maybe 6.

It's a pretty nice truck but pictures are not a good way to check out a truck. Could have been taken 10 years ago. But since he knows what it's worth and he's taking offers. Someone should go offer him the $4500 bucks it's probably worth. I hope whatever is wrong with it that made him decide to sell will keep going for a while, cause he sure as hell not selling it at that price.

Oh forgot to mention. Where the hell did he find a brand new engine? Reman is not new. It's a rebuilt aluminum block engine that probably didn't have a perfeclty straight line bore thru the mains. A brand new engine wouldn't have the twisted block we all run.

Old guys who did machine shop work back when Buick was still running this thing learned that the block twists. If you ever are rebuilding one of these engines you should have it checked for that.
