Makes you wonder why somebody just walked away from their turbo Busa.
Say's it wont start,even if it has a blown motor you could make money on the parts. I'm sure there will be more bids than just the $2200 it sits at right now. Somebody could get a great deal. Good find Highlander,cool of you to post it up. :thumbsup:

U.S. Treasury auction makes me think it was seized by the IRS, "won't start" could be nothing more than a dead battery. Wouldn't that be nice!

That would be sweet. I wouldn't doubt it just needs a batt and perhaps the injectors de-gummed,fresh fuel,etc. Its been sitting,done some time outside too (rusty chain/sprogs,rotors,etc) but it hasn't been down or anything. It was once loved. Polished frame,lot's of aftermarket goodies. Maybe the motor was even built right for the turbo. :thumbsup: If I was in the area and had some disposable income I'd be all over it,even just to flip.
