What Absinth said. Normally I think it's a bit disrespectful to be critical of prices just by looking at a photo online, but in this case I have no sympathy for the seller at all if he's laid out $7k on this believing it to be genuine and somehow worth $50k, or even $15k.
The whole "quick flip" thing doesn't sit right with me. I've seen people blatantly lie to original old owners to screw the price right down so they can flip it for twice the money without doing a thing to it. Those people aren't car enthusiasts, just scumbags, and are the direct reason hobbies like this get put out of reach of the average joe.
Dont get me wrong, I've made money on cars before. I never give a bullshit story to the seller though and the buyers usually ask me if its for sale and makes an offer.
