Distressed= totaled,worth the sum of its parts. Too bad the guy can't take a pic of the worse side and show what they are actually selling. What was it worth before being totaled out would be the question...It may be a good lead after the owner has it for sale a few months. I sold a running,driving,numbers matching,,western car last year for double that price and it did not need 10K worth of body work. Craigslist is so polluted with delusional advertisements that they recently started charging for sale ads for EVERYONE to weed out the serious from the dreamer. It's too bad because it is a good example of how FREE turns into having to charge for all the scams out there(that is why they said they are charging a fee now). Thanks for posting the lead because I know a guy out there needing some parts....will have to wait and see.
