Was checking some ads and came across this and thought I would put it out there. 2000 doesn't seem bad for what looks like a complete undamaged kit and car. I could be wrong though. Anyway her it is.

Too bad it's an automatic... but damn, it's got potential.

Has anyone ever made molds of the Aldino and is selling any or does Corson still make these still?

Still made by Aldino, not a Corson.

Yep.
Designed by the same fella who designed the
Enterra Vipre . You can certainly notice the similarities.
When you see the prices
Here , the car in the ad is a
great buy.
If I wasn't several thousand miles away, that Aldino would be on it's way to
my place.

Why hasn't someone down there bought this Aldino?
Don't make me have to buy it and ship it all the way up here!

I suspect one of three things has happened...
1) The ad was bogus from the get-go. A relatively low asking price on a vehicle such as this immediately raises a red flag.
2) The ad was legit and the vendor was swamped with responses... and is now re-evaluating the asking price.
3) The ad was legit and the car sold within hours... and the vendor can't be bothered to kill the ad.

The length of that shifter reminds of the old

The aldino in the add is legit. I talked to her on Sunday.....In fact I am the one that sold the car to her/husband in fall 2011. They are now going through a divorce and selling his toy. She lives in a remote area and has had many calls, but nobody has showed up. Their is supposed to be a guy coming today who lives 3hrs away.. if he does not take it. I agreed to buy it back from her.

So... are you getting your old car back?
Sorry, but curiosity is getting the best of me.

She was going to call back if she did not sell it to him...so far no calls, so I assume it's sold...I did tell her to give my phone number to the new owner if he had any questions...

That's too bad.
I wish something like this would turn up in my neck of the woods.

I saw it late last week, and emailed her. She replied:
quote Needs work because it sat for 2 years. Body panels could use adjustment. Runs & sounds good. Clear title. Needs to be trailered out because of low profile on my bumpy dirt road.
I had out-of-state family visiting over the weekend, and then was home sick with a stomach bug for a couple of days. I emailed her back yesterday, but she said it had already sold.
Too bad I didn't see it a day or two earlier. My dad was here over the weekend, and he's an ASE Master mechanic. I'm in Atlanta, but that would have been worth driving 6 hours to look it. Could have tried to rent a hauler to bring it home.
