Yellow '72

Who was looking at a yellow '72 on ebay in Las Vegas a while back. It looks like it is up for sale again in Vancouver BC.

It was me Bouncy. I just about bought that blazer and then found out it was full of bondo and had quite a bit of hidden rust, and the motor was not at all as described. I had someone check it out ( thank God ) and the pictures make it look much better than it really is.
It was on Ebay and did not sell the first time when I was interested, then it was re-listed and I even emailed the high bidder prior to the auction ending to save him the trouble and informed him of the problems. He wrote back and thanked me and then even bid higher and won ! Now he is selling it five months later for $22K and claims it is rust free, still using the previous dealers pics...he only paid $11,500...........go figure ?

I thought it was you, but I wasn't sure. I think you are much better off with the rig you got. That thing looks like it is trouble waiting to happen. I'm guessing the guy discovered the problems and decided to unload it. His price is Canadian, but it is still inflated. Maybe he is trying to recover the shipping fees too?
