This forum is for cars that run, or at least are close to running. This isn't for parting out complete cars.

I always wonder if people realize there loosing probably 75% of potential buyers without posting photos in there craigslist add.
I suppose photos are irreverent if selling toilet paper ,tooth paste or a roll of electrical tape but a CAR come on.
I guess this one sells itself :shock:

God, but I hate ignorant, uncaring, spelling! Transposing letters every now and then - OK; but this is a travesty.
Does the writer of this ad think he is giving homage to James Joyce or Virginia Woolf in his stream of consciousness "writing" style? At least they could spell.

Rant over...
