I wonder if this is a funny joke to play on someone he doesn't like...free Corvette is going to get a lot of calls to that number between 2am and 6am.

That reminds me of a stunt a guy I knew pulled on his jerk boss in the late '70s. He wrote an ad describing a "1963 Corvette, custom race car, vents on side, exposed headlights, no split window, 200 mph speedometer. Been sitting in garage since 1968." or something like that. It was priced about the same as most Corvettes but the obvious Grand Sport was bound to generate phone calls.
He placed it in one of these free ad papers so it was good for a month or so. At least this guy can flag the ad and get it off.
