And bumper plugs are missing, no ?

And I don't see much plumbing behind the igloo where the fuel lines are
usually... And the coil is not centered in its bracket, a clue to
aftermarket spark plug and coil wires.

And the rear wiper is parked on the wrong side.

It is hard to tell in those low res photos, but I don't think it has any
decals either. If someone were really selling a 5000 mile urq, they would
certainly have posted high res photos to show off how nice the car is. Not
some crappy pictures of the car in the back yard next to the plastic tarp
fencing and chicken wire.  I'm sure the plastic is to hide the double wide.

It may still have the Certificate of Origin.  A dealer may have kept it and
drove it on their dealer plate for the last 26 years, then rolled back the
odo as Martin suggested.

Does Bill Bremmer have this car in his registry (WAUDC0851DA900508)?
