Yeah dude. No one should have the right to violate a Land Crusher like those guys did. I mean come on, it's a LAND CRUISER. You don't disrespect the name like that...Painting it yellow with puple graphics...Come on...

So I was talking to my sister yesterday and I told her about this auction, and she told me that this guy was her RA when she was in the college dorms at UC Santa Cruz! (RA is like the supervisor) She's seen him around at parties and has also seen this car in person and said the paint job and body work look like complete crap...

It's a small world...

I wouldn't doubt it. Have you noticed how in every episode that baby blue 4Runner is up on the lift, yet they manage to get these cars done in a day? Doesn't look like quality work or quality components.

Wow, I never noticed that...but I just flipped through MTV's album and that 4Runner is there in every episode that I looked at!!! I didn't go through all of them though. Maybe they closed down shop for a few days and did a bunch of these cars at the same time

these guys have reputation that all shop owners wish they had, but they are messing there name up.
the best car i ever saw on that show was the mustang. and i don't know if it's just me but most of the stiching looks crappy, and to think they do full interiors on everything from a bmw to bently's, now i've seen some of there work, real work not (pimp my ride/ advertising) and it is all top notch, but i guess when you're walking in the door willing to spend $100,000+ on aftermarket and custom work there is no such thing as a job too big.

i still give them props for everything their doing, but i wish they stop putting uglyass rims on every car they build, but then again beggers can't be choosers

That girl also lives in Santa Cruz... my sis has seen her cruising around town

I did like that mustang, but if it were me, I would have gone with different wheels.

$19,000!!!
Man...like GS300Rich said, I dont really see the problem with selling it, but I do see a problem with buying it... Just what is that buyer thinking??? Oh well, the fact that the buyer is a 0-feedback bidder may explain it.
