Default '64 Coupe? Body-off Restored?,$29k? Really?

Pictures don't seem to match the text. Looks pretty "scammy" to me.

Love these scam adds on CL. I really like the ones that say they are in Boston or NY and the picture has palm trees in the background. These are scam artists in training.
Never could figure out why some of the scam adds for regular cars are always a strange price, like $2931.00 or $3562.00. Anyone know why that is? They just seem more obvious when they have those kind of prices.

When you see these to good to be true cars, hit the prohibited part on the add and it will get deleted.

Here is where he stole the pic, that looks like a nice car for the cash. The adds date is 6-16-15

The scammers are raising their prices. I remember when you could buy these cars for $8900.

There are so many out there that they make you think some real adds are fake.

not a 327 and not a 4 speed either :-)

I'm reluctant to ever reply to an ad that even resembles something like this. I'm convinced those people are email address and phone number collectors... selling your information to spammers and unsolicited callers.
