I have wanted another pig for so long but this one is a tiny bit rougher than I was hoping. I miss my old GoatPig and just need some swine backed enthusiasm. Yes. I have had my tetanus shots. Last shot is of the GoatPig.

My advice on that one would be to walk way, and I don't mean slowly. It looks like the driver's side rear door hinges fell off the B Pillar. If true then that pig is likely rotten to the core.
 
Touring Europe in the 1970s while four of us lived in a $300 VW bus (ex flower delivery panel wagon from the Netherlands) we found ourselves needing to replace a blown engine in Pansdorf, Germany. My future sister-in-law was doing her best to negotiate with the elderly wrecking yard owner. Her high school German was having a little trouble keeping up with his laughing conversation and gestures toward the gas filler. She finally figured out he was suggesting we keep the gas cap and throw away the rest, but he did install a used engine for about $150, including replacing the wire coat hanger that served as throttle linkage. Made it to Munich in time for Octoberfest.
God only knows what our German savior might say about this poor old Pig. Then again, that rusty bus made it to the Scandinavian countries, went (slowly) over the Alps and ended up in London before being sold to some Australians for their own adventuring. At one point we did have to find an alternative border crossing after being refused re-entry into Germany for safety reasons.

Safety features like brakes and windshield wipers are overrated. Just down shift and run the guard rails.
