...In preparation for other, more janky pursuits. Expect some good Content from me in the next month or so. I priced it at $1200, $1000 if a buyer brings their own wheels. Oppo discount applies but like... you really gotta want this.

You could have just said Jetta, we’d got the message.
Side note, the Jetta is another car I abhor. Not because it’s a terrible car, more of it brings back terrible memories.

*wants to sell car, uses such terrible words like "shitbox" or "Jetta" thinking it'll help his selling chances*

Jetta is a four letter word

I lost it at “This would be a good second car, first car for your least favorite child..."

I’ll check with one of the guys at work. He’s considering getting a beater for his 15 year old to work on between now and when he gets his license.

I would actually be willing to deliver it and pick up the Jetta, as we have a friend outside of Dayton we could go visit. But this Helix is seriously a pile of shit.

Need more info on that mini vette.
Looks more than a just a power wheels

Its a Corvette C5R power wheels (actually, the brand is Safety 1st) that my dad garbage picked last year. I put a motorcycle battery in it, and charge it with a battery tender. It drove really horribly at first, because the left side gear box was all jacked up. I got lucky and found an exact donor with a bad body and a good gearbox, and swapped them out. I'll take a better picture when I go outside.

Cool, my sons power wheels Jeep is still stock drive train for now, but I stuck bicycle tire treads on the wheels since it only drives on grass and gravel

My tastes aren’t really towards bikes right now. I had a friend recently get hit on his, so I’m not looking to ride until I move out of the city.

No worries. You really don't want this one anyways!

I thought this was a “great” car?

Nah, it’s a VW

Really, it is a great car. I just don’t have the time to get it into a state where I’d daily it, as was the original intent.

Yeah, the engine is a really nice touch. Even looks like an LS-1 :)
