Not sure why I'm looking through car ads, I got 1 already. Anyhow.....
Found this 1 in Ohio, awesome price for the very low miles reported. Anyone with a Carfax subscription?

I got a 5 run subscription so figured I would run it just for grins.
The car has a clear title, Carfax does show one accident back in 2007.
Mileage looks to be accurate, there's a steady albeit very slow progression over time.
If anyone wants a copy of the report I can email it to them.

Thanks for running that Carfax. I would think the damage from a roll-over would be enough to total the car...thus the title wouldn't be clear.
I'd be weary for sure but if I were looking for a MM, I'd check this out (armed with as much info about MM's as possible and a camera). Maybe they don't know what they have?

See if someone from the Buckeye Marauders would go check it out for you. Sounds too good to be true.

I was just looking at this (my dad is looking for one) and was wondering why it's so cheap. If anybody is close enough to check it out we would really appreciate it.

Scam. They will ask you to wire money to "hold it" or some crap like that.

It's (supposedly) in the greater Columbus area.
I don't know a "James" however.

Too bad both former active members in that area are no more.

The phone number may be bogus.
Its a fax # for-


FORT RAPIDS INDOOR WATERPARK RESORT

4560 Hilton Corporate DriveCOLUMBUS, OH 43232
Phone: (614) 868-1380
Fax: (614) 863-3581

I had a buddy looking for a 69 Javelin and ran into a really similiar seller.
Guy said he was selling it cheap to get his house out of foreclosure.

The problem is the guy sent my budy pictures of a car that he had already looked into buying.

My brain can't wrap itself around scammers. Why would someone exhaust valuable energy with the sole purpose of robbing someone else?

Because you are one of the honest people left in the world. For that matter 99.9% of the Members here are too. Thats what makes this such a great place. Vendors here are in business to make a living. If you don't like their price, go elsewhere.

You got that right, thats what makes this place special. I bought my second MM sight unseen and never test driven. I am a happy camper due to the honesty and integrity of the individuals I've been luck enough to meet here.
