might have been flagged for removal because buddy is in Alberta but advertising it on CL Vancouver? It wasn't me that flagged it, I swear.
@Twitchy I'll admit that it's well executed, not a botched DIY job but seeing such a classic car updated like that, I dunno, it just kinda rubbed me the wrong way. I love the look of those cars and it's kind of an attainable bucket list car for me.

I'm sure the designer that drew up the Esprit didn't plan on the big afterthought of a bumper that made it to production. And the 1977 N America version of an S1 would be even bigger.
$24G is lots for a toy, I wonder if it sold.

Also, why are 3 of the claims $0.00, including the last one that caused the car to be written off? | The ad is down now, but are we sure those are all of the collisions? Usually an ICBC report will have a separate line that says "TOTAL LOSS" as a result of it being written off.

LOLOL.
I live in Pemberton, it's a really small town and I have NEVER seen this thing around (thank god), it must be a new arrival. One would have to be insane to pay $20K for that thing. Quote:

anyone in the market for a sweet custom CORVETTE C5 RODSTER?
I'm not sure why the seller is shouting in his ad in all caps. https://nanaimo.craigslist.org/cto/d...228754844.html
CORVETTE C5 RODSTER - $45,000 (Qualicum Beach) 
THIS BEAUTY HAS A CUSTOM PAINT JOB THAT YOU WOULD LOVE TO SEE IN PERSON. IT IS A CONVERTIBLE, LOW KM, AND RUNS PERFECTLY. I WILL CONSIDER ANY RESONABLE OFFERS.

Sometimes I feel bad for cars that clearly have some love or money put in to them, but are worthless. Can’t believe he’s asking 45k for an 18 year old non-z06 vette, but doesn’t give any actual information on it whatsoever
