    Nope, never seen it before. I would agree there's a few things wrong with it.

    What else is wrong with it, as far as you can see?
    Board member BaCo (Bart) is interested in this Wildcat.

    I've visited Kustom King in Spruce Grove back in 2014, when they sold thier entire field of (scrap) cars.
    Maybe this car, and the other cars in the Kijiji advertisement, came from that auction?


    Hundreds of classic cars up for auction

    These cars were not sold and ended up in the shredder:

    Just looking at the car, the grille is wrong, the hood spear is wrong, the wheels are newer, and the paint is a quick splash. The rag needs to be replaced, it looks like it's pretty taunt. If it's an Alberta car it would be a bondo buggy, that's almost a guarantee. The body lines in the lower rears would almost spell that out, they look swollen in the wrong places, like someone didn't trowel it out right. It's an $8-9K car and that would be tops. It's probably built from junk to flip, - that happens a lot around here, especially with cars like these.
    I don't like that there are no motor shots or interior shots; - that screams "quick flip" to me, and that implies it's a waste of time.
    If I can get the time I'll try and see if I can go look at it.
    I wondered what had happened to Kustom King, they had a lot of junk out there, I think you photographed the best of the lot.

    @BaCo

    Bart, if you're still interested, maybe Marc can take a closer look at the car.

    I think there is to much wrong with that car.
    I think Mark could use his time better than looking at the car.
