Look in the for sale section of this web site. Go back through the pages. There could be some advertised 6 months ago and not sold.

Although some people may join just to put in an add, many of those cars will be from members that have been around for years. You can do a search of posts by that member and find out tons of information. Things like problems they had and upgrades they have done. How the car was mainly used. You can even get a flavor of the personality (trustworthyness) of the owner. I don't think you can ever get this type of information buying anything or anywhere else (other than a similar club).

The member I bought my car from volunteered all the good and bad about my car on the first phone call. He likely had no idea I already new most of what he told me. I new then I was dealing with an upstanding guy. I bought it pretty much over the phone 1000 miles away.

Personally e-bay scares me, when it comes to high $$$ items.
