Probably somebody smoking his rope just to see the reserve. Or maybe its the extra motor in the trunk to get 12 cyl.?

Your right its gotta be his buddy bidding on it. What the heck is he thinking. Even if it really did have a 12 cyl motor wheres the pics to prove it. If it does have a 12 cyl and he has the pics to prove it believe me the bids gonna go up. Oh yeah whatever did happen to that 91 TGP I wanted it to. HA HA HA

This guy just won't give up! He must have swapped engines out because now it has a 6 cylinder. :D I sent him a message saying at that price and with no pictures and basically no description he doesn't stand a chance of actually selling it to a real buyer. :P

You guys aren't going to believe this. As I said above I sent this guy a message about his auction, here is what I sent:

QuoteI'm sure you have already had people contact you about this car but just in case you haven't I'm writing to you. First, you will never sell this car without pictures. Second, TGP's are not worth $8000 right now. There have been way to many on ebay lately and it has dropped the value down quite a bit. If you are serious about selling the car drop the price, put up lots of pictures and give a very good description. If someone is shopping for a TGP they most likely know about the cars and are going to want to know details. Good luck.

Here is what he wrote back:

Quotesend me your phone number or call me at 814-444-5826, so I can discuss this with you.
If you know so much. carmanz2457

So I call this guy and as soon as he finds out it's me he goes off on a frenzy of insults and curse words. :o I tried to tell him I was actually trying to help but he hung up before I got it all out. What a dick! I didn't think my message above sounded that harsh. I actually was trying to help.
