The dash in that Rivera is just a flat piece of garbage. It looks like someone made it in their backyard. Still, hop up that engine to make a sleeper.

That 1992 Ranger. Man, I remember a kid that had one of those in High School, and then it hit me, it would have only been 10 years old at the time, and my Derpkota is almost 2x as old as that.

The car just came out of the shop where it received $10k in paint, carbon fiber, and sound system upgrades. While the work was being done, I stumbled across a deal on a C6Z that needs a motor so this one has to go.
:notsure: but... the car actually has some nice modz on the engine/suspension side. Tear out the lights/bodykit and you're good to go.

I am ERIC BROOKS, Internet Manager for Putnam Toyota.
I have been here with Putnam Toyota for 19 years.
I am knowledgeable, easy to deal with and low pressure.
*
I am trying to make the car buying experience a better one for you.
I am a nice normal guy, not a slimy car salesman and I know the product well.
When you meet me you will realize I am just a normal guy selling cars.
I do my best to take the fear factor out of buying a car.
You can look me up on Yelp.
Strangely enough, I am not here 7 days a week, 24 hours per day.
I know its weird, but I do take days off and I do not work from open to close.
I mention this as, it is best to make an appointment with me.
It is also good to make sure the vehicle is still here, before making the trip in.
The car buying experience does not need to be a horrible one.
Let's make it a fun and exciting experience together.
I look forward to hearing from you!
:dillerman:

All those words... for a wait for it... 48k Toyota TACO!

Maybe I should put mine on ebay, could be worthwhile... I've never sold anything over a few hundred bucks on there :doe: and definitely never a car.

I've sold a number of cars on eBay with great results. Cars that appeal to a limited market like yours benefit greatly from national exposure. You should definitely give it some thought.

The key is good photos, and lots of them. Host elsewhere and insert into the add to avoid paying more. I bet you'd get good attention from a solid listing on eBay.

Great advice.

I sold my C5 on ebay in 2006 and made $4k more than the best deals around here. The dude wired me the money and the next weekend he flew into Oakland where I met him at the airport. He drove it up to Seattle where he put it on a ship to get delivered to his home in Juneau Alaska.

$3500 for a junkyard spec Wrangler. From the breh's description:
I've probably put >$10,000 into this so I'm taking a big loss, the parts alone are worth more. Rebuilt rear differential, new body mounts, new shocks, new steering stabilizer, new radiator, new brakes, new tires, new fuel pump, new skid plate, engine in great shape. Frame rust is only issue.

Why TF would anyone spend $10k putting parts on such a shitbeater?
