Unhappy shitty situation

This may be the last time i post here for awhile. my 98 formula got repossed by the bank last week due to my current financial hardship. anyway, the reason for the post is that the car will be sold at auction as is.
the car has minor electrical issues that can be fixed at an extremely minimal cost. but to the average buyer the car just dont start lol it needs a starter and negitive ground. thats it. i found out that capital one will not authorize repairs over 150 so i doubt they plan on having someone fix it before auction. the actual auction will happen around the 30th of this month.
you could get my car at a steal and i would love to see a fellow ls1techer have my car rather than a 16 year old jackass that thinks its cool because its really loud. the car was mustang dynoed at 412 rwhp but seems stock besides the true duals. its a 98 formula m6 with 86k silver new ls7 clutch and 02s
if anyone is interested let me know via pm and ill see if i can get more on the auction info~ sorry to say i wont be around as much but thanks for all the help and support guys.. i have met some really cool people on here~NICK

The car isn't emissions legal, so I doubt most dealers would want to touch it.
