Dead Boss lives again??

Didn't expect to see this. I am guessing this is the original owner trying to sell the car without CarFax finding out about it.

eBay

Original thread. I'm pissed that I didn't grab a screenshot or download pics.

I remember that. It was torn all to hell, don't think it had a straight panel on it.

Edit: Yep, that's the one I was thinking of.

Hope this helps anybody thinking about bidding on it. I did a before and after.

I was looking at the seller's feedback, and he bought a race red bumper and boss splitter/fascia from BOI in October. Bought some head gasket sealant as well, wonder if it was for the Boss too?

I have no problem with someone repairing their vehicle and reselling... I DO have a problem if they do not fully disclose what they are selling... classic case of buyer beware!

This is one reason why a Boss registry of our cars is so important now and in the future.

We all need to report this to eBay...

So, the zombie attack has begun and the lead "walker drives" a Boss...maybe they can use this car on "The Walking Dead" tv show?

I'd say that's going to be a tough sell considering that a NEW BOSS crate engine is like $12K, and there's no risk of crash damage etc.

There might be some other salvageable parts in there as well, but it'd be a lot of work to squeeze another $8k out of the bunch.

Thanks for doing that. I sent a tip to Jalopnik just in case eBay doesn't pull the auction. I've also written to CarFax and AutoCheck.

See how creepy you Boss Boys are, always trying to get away with something.
