Sy #1059 for sale in Washington

First off, sorry if this is in the wrong forum. Took some pics of a Sy for sale today, in between burst of stupid rain. 2nd owner, bought it on a whim back in '93-'94 with 20k on it. He's only driven it about 30k since then, and stopped altogether back in '06. Started after cranking for a while, and not very well kept as you can see. He says the visor and sun roof don't leak, but I'm sure it's just a matter of time. Stock exhaust had rotted off at some point, so now it's got a single muffler and pipe. He didn't leave the truck running for long, but I did notice the ABS light stayed on. Stupid AWD and quarter-panel decals look like they'd come off with very, very little help. All wheels need refinishing, and he's missing the one center cap. All in all, I'm surprised at how much surface rust and corrosion this truck has. He paid $19k for it years ago, and feels $14k is a good deal. PM for contact info if anyone wants.

What is up with the visor? Put a snow plow on it and it would be complete. Under the hood makes it look like a back east truck.

Sold new in Seattle, has only made it about 50 miles west since then. Lots of ugly exposure to the elements.

Hello, this 91 GMC Syclone is still available and is in great condition for the age. Have air conditioning, 49,085 miles, automatic transmission and 4.3L V6 engine. The interior is stunning with full wood, no pet or smoke odor, no rips or tears just normal wear. The exterior is super clean, pain is like glass. Here's the VIN# 1GDCT14Z7M8801059 if you wanna check it out. I have a clear title under my name with no accidents. I am selling it at this price ($1,500) because I'm leaving with my platoon to Ukraine on 16th of this month for 12 months contract. Was my husband pickup, he loved it very much, but didn't enjoy it.. He died in a bike accident 2 months ago...it brings me bad memories and now I decided to sell it. I want to sell it asap and a fast sale can be done only at a low price. The delivery process will be paid by me and clear title and a bill of sale will be send along with the car. Here are some pictures:http://s1381.photobucket.com/user/matznicola/library. I look forward to hearing from you. Melissa Rogers, senior medic

Very much a scam. I drive by this truck, still, entertaining the idea of making an offer.

So, the interior is only stunning if you have full wood? I don't think I've ever been that excited about a truck. :cool:

That's some elaborate ad...it attempts all the right moves: woman, widow, military. And just $1,500. :roll:

Well, as I've previously told you my platoon will deploy to Ukraine. Right now I'm in a military base of Nellis, NV Air Force Base to complete the pre-deployment training program and I am only allowed to check my email. We have to stick to email for now. Hope you can understand. The vehicle is here with me at the base and the delivery process will be managed by me. I think I can have it there at your home address in 2-3 days. It will come with a clear title and reg. I am a member of the eBay motors and using this service you will get a 5 days testing period before committing to buy the vehicle or before I'll have your money. I need to know if you are interested so I can ask eBay to send you the details on this deal. If interested just email with your legal name (for the bill of sale) address where you want the vehicle delivered and phone # where you can be reached, so we can get the ball rolling. Thank you and God bless !

Hi Melissa,

Very interested, where are you located? Can I see the truck?

I thought you are in Long Island from the 631 area code but the plates are Washington plates.


Thanks

Her response should be pretty funny!

There is another truck like that on craigslist that is in Michigan and I think Connecticut. Same pictures, even same license plate. Not this truck though.

Both the scams I have encountered with extremely low prices always end up with them wanting to do the transaction through "Ebay Motors" Iol. Must be some fake Ebay site they send you to. Never got far enough to find out.

OMG...I don't have hip-waders big enough for all this BS.

Please tell "her" you're on to his scam and will be reporting. And not to invoke the "G" word when you're scamming people. Scumbag.

The Photobucket link is the same truck I looked at, can't mistake those decals and the location. Such a nice day outside, might just drive by and take a current pic. Poor thing.
