A good old fashioned word salad for everyone:

http://houston.craigslist.org/cto/3665526561.html



I have a hard time understanding how people can actually type like that. Do they just spell everything phonetically and ignore punctuation?

edit

Did used prices for all the g-bodies go up while i wasn't looking? The El Caminos and turbo Buicks have been high for a while, but the rest seem to have been rising as well. Is the donk community really chewing through them that fast?

Anyway, this guy included a few artist renditions of his car:

And if you want to make your car look expensive, I guess parking it in front of a shack in the Third Ward is one way of doing that.

It reads a lot like someone is ESL, and spelling phonetically. In my head it sounds a lot like what a native Chinese speaker with limited English skills. Of course they may just have literacy issues. Either way at least it's readable and seems to have been written by a fairly sane person.

Didn't that seat 3? Also the perspective threw me off at first but I think a passenger can still sit in that seat, they just have a lot less leg room now. I can't imagine why you'd prioritize a subwoofer over that.

Hate to unearth a post from several months ago, but don't be sad that you didn't buy this car! It just came into my shop and I had to put a new engine in it! I was digging through this thread backwards, and saw this post and laughed. Even had to get a donor car for the engine:

Thats about the price of a new one, if you can find a dealer with one sitting on the lot. I've heard of people having trouble finding one but LA craigslist is loaded with em'.

They're about $26k new with destination charges, I guess less if a dealer is willing to negotiate. I don't know how they aren't fast enough to get a ticket in, you don't need FAV HUNNERT HORSEPOWAH to do 75.

The DAV thrift store off of Old Spanish Trail is also acceptable in certain situations.

Your hooked on rust. The only cure is wire wheels, cutting disks and a welder.

The ad correctly points out that it is a Louis Vuitton pattern. It always looked like nursery wallpaper to me, but apparently some people will pay absolutely obscene amounts of money to have that pattern on everything they own. That isn't even the first time I've seen a car interior done up that way -- there was an 8-series on eBay a while back that was just as tasteless.

Notice also that it says over 3000 fabrication hours invested.

For someone working 8 hour days in a shop, that's 1 year and 9 days of labor lost in creating that pile of rolling garbage.
