FW: Buyer beware !!! E-Bay auction # 1872942197

[Andrew Micali]

Yes, those were the wheels I bought the car with.
The rack had a tiny "weep" from day one...after the pump and pressure
hoses were replaced it became a flood.

Maybe "Sergey" fixed it.  He says tires are now 75%.
He probably bought cheap used ones.  Resivour has
Pento (or something) in it.  It's about 90% full.
Maybe it leaked down that much when he pulled it out
for the photo?  It "looks" pretty nice.  Did you have
the 200 Autobox wheels on there?  I bet he bought it
at the charity auction real cheap, did some repairs
and sold it.  2500 for an 89 with 213k miles?  Not
bad.  I wonder what my junk would fetch on E-bay?
