Unless it went for $2100, I doubt it.
My last communication with the seller was on Feb. 14. The eBay sale is apparently dated 9 days thereafter, so the timeline is not unbelievable.
As I understood things, the seller had a time constraint. Regardless, I never made a lowball offer ("sight unseen, at that price I'll buy it"), and he never offered.
The "Buy It Now" price seems to have been $2.1k, which is less than 30% of the OfferUp ask. Either the eBay sale is fictitious, or the seller got desperate (but did not tell me about it) and the car was well bought by someone else. So be it.

Very interesting ad since I "bought" this car off Ebay a few weeks ago. I left him a $500 deposit, AND i shipped him a NEW set of tires that he was supposed to mount for me so it could be shipped. DO NOT deal with guy...he will not answer my texts.

Longitudinal chrome strip (with rubber inserts) was standard on 1971 Imperials. But the generic plastic ones found on this car might indicate a repaint at some time.

Driveline was worth that, especially in this market
Even my Coronet, stored in our shop that is insulated and has fans running for circulation, got mold and mildew in it. It all cleaned up just fine.

Could you tell from the Facebook post whether it was hemi viper that ended up getting it - I would hope so..........................

If someone here would contact the "owner" that would help, curious if its still "for sale" since I already bought it. $7,500 here... https://offerup.com/item/detail/1349800506

I sent him a message asking if it runs or will at least drive on to a trailer. We'll see if he responds.

Yes i sent him a $500 deposit to hold the car, and also sent him a new set of tires that he promised to mount so it could be easily shipped.$1,050 spent. He promised to quote "give me the deluxe treatment" to insure a smooth pickup etc. I must have misunderstood exactly what he mean't...

Looks like his ad on Offer Up is now "Unlisted"

Have you tried reaching him at the phone number in the ad? 405-962-0795.
