Choices were made. They weren't good ones. ND.

Yeah, I could almost get there if it was just kind of ratty survivor, instead of a survivor of bad choices.

I wrote this on Oppo years ago, but since my dad is currently in ICU fighting for life, I think it’s ok to repost again in his honor. Hang in there Pops....

It looks like roll on truck bed liner.

Nice color, reasonably nice shape, 5 speed, sounds like it runs and drives fine. You could buy this, cruise around to picnics and car show on the weekend and spruce it up a little as you go.

Maybe, in addition to a mechanical inspection, run a black light around the back of it before you commit.

Finally, a camper for The Weeknd.

This is the same company that decided to save a few bucks per car by not having engine immobilizers for several years.

That’s my thought, too. I’m not blaming owners like Peter, but Hyundai. At least they made good by him but nothing makes up for the frustration and time lost.

I’m with you. It looks amazing, so investigating and solving the fuel injector issue can be your project without having a dozen other assignments behind it. $12k isn’t chump change but the wow factor is strong, it’s a pretty little gem.

I appreciate that write-up, Rory, and have nothing to add other than...

You can’t drive there, mate.

Going aftermarket on the fuel injection controllers is sometimes a great solution on cars this age - but issues with said system make you wonder if you’ll need to rip everything out and start over again. So yeah, ND on the intermittent issues (and the cat delete).

It’s... A lot. It’s one of those things that makes you wonder, “how many American flags equal one Confederate flag?”

In before Cybertruck! I personally love the SSR, but I’m fully aware my opinion on this matter is objectively incorrect.

Lots of miles left in this one -- absolutely NP. It looks to be in very good shape, to boot. 

At $2500 just about any car that runs is a NP.

I’ve always had an irrational attraction to the 505 diesel. A good paint job and euro headlights would be the cat’s pajamas.  NP.

Holy Crack Pipe, Batman! The missing trim and the absence of a strut tower brace are all I needed to see. Someone did this THEN realized it was a bad idea and is trying to recoup their outlay. Pandemic project, maybe? This is ND at half the price.

Let’s get the pitchforks!
