The big question we all had was whether he did the crank install to get it back to stock and dumped it....or if he paid the stealer or a cheaper shop.
That was just the first owner too...not sure how many people she's been through since then.
It's a buyer beware in any case.

If its just a crank angle sensor, thats not so bad...might have to look into it.

That old eBay link is one of the most disturbing tidbits of prose I've ever had the misfortune of reading. I seriously hope that no one gets hosed on this!

I just tryed calling for it and some kid answered. He said that they got no car for sale and somebody played a joke on them by putting that add up. Who know's the truth.
