logikf1ve Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 Saw this in my local JY today.. Dunno what year it was, didn't look. REALLY REALLY clean Z34 Lumina with 54,000 miles. I saw it and started looking and was like "wow this car has no rust and shiny paint all over..." Open the door and check the mileage and about peed myself. WHY would anyone do it? Yeah, the car has no resale (hence why it was a CFC) but Jesus.. What a clean car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

logikf1ve Posted September 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 I doubt the belt was broken as the car was a CFC.. They all had to run/drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ss427 Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 92 seats, pre-93 wheels, I say 92. Wonder how the dash cap is.. Was it a stick or auto? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5speedz34 Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 No wheel well trim.....dead give away that it's not a '91-'92. If it was CFC is should have been crushed by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logikf1ve Posted September 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 It was an auto. There is no deadline to when a CFC gets crushed. As long as engines aren't sold from them, they have no reason why they can't sit in the JY. This car IS a CFC, I know it for a fact. I'm going back tomorrow and I'll get pictures of the sticker on the engine to prove it. I bet it's pretty rifled over now by other people, though.

Grand Moff Joseph Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 From what I understand from the bill, CFC cars must be crushed after 180 days of trade in. So, the yard will let people get as much as they can from it, then crush it later. either way, looked like a good car, though the paint looks pretty jacked up in those pics.

ZoomZoomFan Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 People are dumb. There is no reason why a car with 54,000 miles on it should be considered a "clunker." Hell, my g/f's Malibu is at almost 54k and it's an '06! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logikf1ve Posted September 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 The paint was just covered in dust/dirt. Spray it with a hose and it'd look like brand new. Hell, the stock wheels didn't even have any clearcoat peeling! Even so, this car will likely be gone long before 180 days... This yard has a quick turn over rate. You can see "Clunker" written on the windshield and the sticker on the front valve cover. Engine bay is a little dirty for 54,000, but not abnormal IMO.

logikf1ve Posted September 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 Makes sense.. You can probably tell by the engine cover thingger... I noticed it said DOHC instead of Twin Dual Cam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
