Looking for a new project for the winter and found these two cars running at auction Monday morning. Was hoping to see if anyone knew anything about them or who their previous owners were, any mods or what could be wrong with them? They are both inoperable(non-running).

First is a 2014 White GT with 19k miles, looks like it's missing a few engine parts:

Anyone? I bought both. The white one was supercharged at one time, looks like they pulled the supercharger before having it repo'd. Most of the parts are there.

Would really like some info on the blue one. I've been looking for a car to build and this one seems perfect. Already has a boss intake and full suspension. Clutch is completely gone.

I have my stock trunk lid panel if you're interested for that white one.
It has a couple broken tabs, it's fully plasti-dipped and the dip is chipping in a corner, but it's better than a trunk lid fully of holes, lol

That white one is mint

The white one is actually pretty clean. Someone just threw it back to stock without bolting any of the parts down, including the bumper.

The white one is going to be sold. The blue one is going to be mine.

Lets work out a trade for my roush!!! I want the white one!

It will be for sale when it's ready to go!

Wholesale business man. The intention of my post was definitely not to sell any cars. It's a pretty fun job, I must admit.

He said the blue one he was keeping and going to build for himself. Was the white one wrecked or as you said someone just returned it to stock? Repo auctions through manheim or is this through their tow lane?

I was planning on keeping the blue one, until I got to working on it. Way too much stuff that it needs for me to be happy with it. Previous owner was a complete moron and half-assed quite a few things on it.

No it was not wrecked. Looks to me like they pulled the bumper off to remove the heat exchanger and then just set it back on without bolting it down. These came from the TRA(total resource auctions) from Manheim Tampa. Most of my cars come from Manheim or Adesa.
