I think the price is a typo. Must have meant 4.00 dollars.

The paint scheme is definitely not factory, although it is kinda cool in an early '80s-techno-retro sort of way.

The price has to be a typo, pure and simple.

even if it was some super race paint scheme, the car is trashed, rusty, and high mileage, nothing about it is left to be collectible. and its a 3rd gen, the guy is nuts, but there are stupid people in this world with money pouring out of there asses, so who knows, somebody may buy it.

Swapping VIN tags is highly illegal in every state of the US. I don't suggest doing it and I definately suggest that it not be mentioned on a public forum such as TGO.

Yes, but it wasn't an S/E and it was in 1984 :

Shouldn't a guy asking 40K fir a car at least pump up the tires and use a leaf blower to clean the crap off of the car. Some people think that you put it on E-bay and someone will pay what-ever for it.
