man, I really wish the green car was nicer, or the blue one had a sunroof. It's tough being patient. Someone SupaNinja introduced me to last week scooped up a T34 locally, that was advertised publically. Who has two thumbs and was caught slippin? this guy  |

| I wouldn't say pissed. I truly believe that EVERYTHING happens for a reason, and something good is in store for me, and that car was meant for them. I wouldn't have been mad if that car was meant for me though. Caught slippin for sure |

It doesn't show in two of the pictures so it's hard to know what it actually has now.
I find it most hilarious that the seller considers it a '2-Very Good' condition car.

$18K for a '67 Square? It's probably that price since it's "very rare" and has a brand new "crate motor".

It's nice, but for $18K I see a lot of shoddiness and cut corners. And that's just on what we can see,

Dash pad, seat covers are the two things that stick out the most, IMO
$18k would build one hell of a nice car.

Stingers are completely and totally dope. There should be no discussion regarding the 'coolness', or effectiveness', or 'realisticness' of such a mythical, air cooled only, kick-ass accessory.

The hacked air cleaner snout is probably my favorite. Nothing like hot air into the intake for eighteen grand.

I really don't know what to say about type3 prices these days there all over the place.
If that car was all OG with 70,000 on the clock would any one pay $10G for it?

At least the new owners know what they got and they waited 10 yrs for t34 in that shape and price.
