This is not mine. I know a classified ad don't really belong in the pub. I just posted it because I have seen a few threads discussing this car before.

Hello, I have a very unusual and rare vehicle, its rare because its the only one ever made in the world. Its a 92 Geo metro lsi, It was custom made into a Limousine a number of years ago, and then stored for some more years, it was only driven in snow last winter so the body and frame have no rust and are in mint condition. The only reason im selling it is because i need rent money, even though i work six to seven days its still kind of hard to make ends meet. Im the second owner of this car and when i got it a year ago it had 67,000 miles, now it has just over 100,000 because i live in the new center area but work on 18 and a half mile, The car still runs and drives but needs to have the engine flushed and cleaned out because do to lack of money and a valve cover gasket leak i started using very cheap oil in it and now it has white smoke out the back, dont worry its not the head gasket geos are known to smoke because of the carbon build up that happens so it has the be cleaned out with a lot of carb cleaner or what everyone on the geo metro forum calls a product called a seafoam treatment, as i said it does run and drive except for that, it does not and has never overheated, it does not and has never had any thing mixing in with the oil, the last time i took the egr valve off it was also caked with carbon, i get most of my info off the geo forum, it has a 5 speed stick with the three cylinder engine, yet it has the power to drive eight people around town though i didnt do a lot of that, the body is structurally sound, the guy that streched it used to build all kinds of limos, for different companies and shows. the body is perfect, no rust, no dents, no dings, just a crazy hand painted mural somebody that actually knows how to paint should do this car justice. it will also need an ignition switch, because i lost the keys and had the take the swicth apart so that i could continue to drive my limo, the car has gotten me so so much attention, have taken it to exotic car shoots, and the camera people always start taking pics and video of my car. the only other thing bad is that the interior ceing was never finished right, he put a wood paneling up there that needs to be replaced with a real ceiling headliner like cars have, maybe some foam and fabric (idk), I didnt care about that i just loved having it. car drives very very good, have loved taking my wife and for small trips in it, but just need to raise money now, and i honestly know im not gonna have the money to do the things i had planned for it. ill post pics, but you can see video of it on you tube, just type (my geo limousine) in the search box, you can email me or text me at 313-523-2719 TEXT ONLY or email as i have a very young baby . The price is $600 Everything works and all neccesities such as wiring, fuel lines, brake lines, and exhaust are all good and expertly lengthened and function perfectly! LOL! and yes that is a tiger giving betty boop the eye on the hood of the car! thanks, needs a new battery the one in it has a dead cell,
 
Don't come to Flint with that unless you have a garbage bag for one of the busted out windows, otherwise we know you're not from here.
 
I posted about this car last year. I've seen it running around on Michigan Ave by the old Tigers stadium, I guess it does run, how safe or well I won't comment. It was not being pushed when I saw it though.
 
Apparently 24 hours of Lemons legend "speedycop" has purchased this thing. So it will be showing up at a Lemons race.
 
At Gingerman this year Speedycop rented an old Impala wagon, caged it at the track and raced it.
He once raced a Donk, wheels and tires aren't part of the $500 budget so a legit Donk is pretty easy to get in.
I think the year before at Gingerman he ran a 63 Tbird, the trans broke, they tried to get another one but old Ford parts interchange issues prevented that so the welded the shit in the trans together to make it direct drive and ran it until the engine blew up. I'm pretty sure it was also caged at the track.
The Tbird then got the engine and trans out of a 750iL, he put a carb on that, and ran it that way.
Then he swapped an engine out of a 524td (diesel) in the Tbird.
He's also run with a big old Galaxie, a Mark VIII, a Lancia Scorpion bodied MR2, and I'm pretty sure various other crazy things that usually show up to the track not quite done yet.
