Don'it just make ya wanna kick the kid what done that?


Same seller has this green Torino (auction # 250333503804) that I believe is a PM bod.
Do they really go for 29.00 on an Aurora chassis? Looks like paint over spray on the underside?

He does have some very nice pieces otherwise.


(in case you are wondering, something happened to the settings on my PC and i do not know what to do about it. When I copy from the Bay addy bar now, I get the mess below. )

Notice (on most auctions) how the auctions with Aurora bodies have the part numbers on them, but he doesn't mention those using AW/JL bodies that they are AW/JL bods.

C'mon Joe!! You know better than that!!! :tongue:

That's just the normal copper corrosion on that chassis.. It probably spent the past 20 years in a damp basement. And yes indeedy-do, that is a JL T-Jet body. While the chassis might be salvageable, the hour or so spent cleaning it up and the parts needed to make it run would be a wash vs. the cost of a NOS chassis...unless the solid rivet means that much to someone.. @$29.00, I think he'll be relisting that one!!!

If it's green... it's PITTED!!!! Guaranteed! Copper oxide means metal has moved!

Kills me when I see the ole "slight corrosion" disclaimer....LOL!

Means the chassis wuz mint and will now forever be a pitted runner once ya get the copper oxide removed.

I got a whole bunch of near mint pennies under the floormat of my truck.:rolleyes:

I was mentioning the overspray on the underside of the body, not the chassis.

Looks like it belongs next to a body shop, not on a dirt track.
