Oh. My. Gawd.
This one has been under discussion on the E-type mailing list. The seller says it is a “parts car”… but look closely at the engine bay photo. The fire was so hot it melted the aluminum cam covers!
Ouch.
It’s pretty bad. Another in the same vein:

HAH! I’ve outbid chuckles for the rights to make this car into a *planter*…;)
I’m not going to PAY anything for that pile of rust and melted aluminum, even if it deserves a proper burial.
“The carpet, seats, and the dash are all burned but the frames are not bent nor do they have any holes so they could be rebuilt with a little bit of work.”
Um…what color *IS* the sky on this feller’s home planet??…LOL!!!
Purple, of course! 😉
