Isn't it amazing how people half way around the way get enthused about what us people in Ohio can do? My guese, do to the look around the steering box, is that it's on the S 10 Blazer variety frame. Probably that much value in the parts (especially if it's titled as an "A"). Too bad about the wheelbase. It could be staightened out though. If it's titled as a Blazer. It would be worth more money if it was sold as a re-bodied Blazer with a Model "A" clip on the front GPster                                              '53 Chevrolet Belair disguised to look like a '51 Chevrolet truck disguised to look like a "Rat Rod (truck)"

Hmmm.  I wonder if we could enact some Tool Control laws that would help prevent this kind of tragedy.  Nah, probably wouldn't work any better than the 250 or so gun control laws we have. :wink:

I've thought for years that acetylene and sawzall blades should be sold only with a prescription, this is a classic example of why.  At first I thought it was a joke, that somebody had set a nice A body on an S-10 frame for laughs, but if it's a joke they went to a lot of trouble to put front fenders on it.  I suppose the body alone is worth the $$ providing they haven't cut up the floor to make it fit.

Boy you guys are hard! :shock:   My 34 Ford is going to look about like that :roll: , now I'm scared to post any pictures.  Guess I'll just hide in the garage a while more. :twisted:

I see that he's been parallel parking too close to the curb.  I kinda like his method of making the front fenders to fit the tires.  Just put a flat sheet of metal on your tire, then drive it for a while.  Probably how he scraped the right tire; got too close to the curb to make the downward curve on the outside of the fender.

I've picked up some good ideas here... :lol:

If you look at his other auctions you will see he is into Honda Cycles, prolly was trying to make this look like a Honda. He darn near succeeded.

Well, you could send him some tips on how to put the wheels where they belong but he'd probably respond like he did to questioners in his auction.  This one is wrong on so many levels!

I reckon it (the body) would be worth at least $3000 if it's as good as it looks.  The rest, 'maybe' $1000; so my guess would be $4000.

It truely is; unbelievable  :roll: !

You can tell how much of an idiot the guy is - he even let the questions be posted to the listing.

Can't disagree with that.  It's clear the chassis needs to be thrown away and you can't just put it on the curb for the garbage man!
