These types are always for sale. I'd want to get rid of it too.

after looking a little closer, fine details like the masking tape plug wire markers. The invisible wires to the electric choke. (Very nice touch that! Must be blue tooth). The custom hay wire holding the upper rad hose! (Super custom touch).
The invisible PCV system is so trick I can't believe my eyes!
yes, I couldn't agree more. You really should make him an offer doorgunner!
And, it even comes with a screwdriver (in the custom console) so you can make repairs!

The biggest problem is that despite being named "Wild Cherry", that color is clearly Raspberry Sherbet.

Maybe offer $33K since you'll need to cross out the name and write the new one somewhere else?

Why do folks spend a bunch on bolt-on engine parts, and then use a tiny air filter?

Where'd the blower go?

I don't think it looks bad on the outside, but that interior is thrashed.

I guess "Wild Raspberry Sherbet" just wouldn't garner much street cred.
Are the wheelie bars really necessary?

Remove the wheelies & let her flip, best thing that could possibly happen to this POS, just save the gator armrest, a must have for the 1 of 1 "RARE" collector.
Thank god there is only 1 in KS !!!!!!
