Treasure trove.
I just couldn't stop posting this here.

This economy sure is pulling out all kinds of collector cars into the market, but what I am mostly seeing is -
1) A lot of very good cars not selling even for ridiculously low asking prices.
2) Piece of junk for which people wants an arm and a leg.
Just venting

$10,000.00 for a 68 with the wrong engine and missing the fornt end clip.
Am I missing something here?
What makes this worth $10,000.00 ?
I love 68's and have had my 68 since 1972; it is completely restored so if anything I am prejudiced in a good way towards 68's but I don't see where this 68 is worth $10,000.00.
It will take tons of money to make it back to correct and then it will still have the wrong engine.
I must be missing something that makes this car worth 10grand,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Lots of demands in this add. It reads like an direct order from the government 
. If that's not enough "I know the value of the car and this is a great bargain!" about sums up the mentality of the owner. 
By the way where is "Bats" when we really need him?

Anyway.. David's gotta be a very fair person. He/she will give the car and all the parts to the first person who shows up with 10k.

It's like subliminal advertising or hypnotising......"buy my crap-pile......it's not junk.....you won't negotiate on price because this is a cream-puff......hurry......cash......cash..... .bring the cash".
The last time I heard something like that was when I was watching Star Wars........"These aren't the droids you're looking for".
I think it MUST be a typo. I think the "shim" she-David should have said "bring $1000...hurry. PS...I'm mentally handicapped, so be cautious at the door, because I drool and bite strangers." Freaky...just plain freaky.
OOOoooh.....and I thought this was a hot selling point..." this is a marine block that my husband flew by helicopter to Jacksonville Florida to have a well-known engine man rebuild for him. I have the specs somewhere but I might not be able to find them. " What the...????
