Default The OFFICIAL Hilarious Craigslist / eBay Ad Thread

Ok, we've all seen them... an ad for a mustang or part for sale that makes you cry laughing. Whether it be someone advertising their 1972 Original Mustang Carpet (used) for $650 on craigslist (yes, that's a REAL example) or their 67 Coupe with 24" rims, Lambo Doors, and Velour interior.

So... post them here, let's all get a good laugh, because let's face it, some of these clowns deserve a good public "laughing at".

I just did a quick local search...

lol this guy wants 140k for his "Collector" car. it isn't special edition by any means, he just did a lot of custom work. At least it looks like a nice car, but doubt its worth that much to anyone but him.

This is what kills me about that ad;

"Car is UNIQUE for a modern convenience with the best body style on a Mustang.. "

It's hilarious because 69s are so ugly.













































LOL jk.

Thats exactly what my 69 Mach1 looked like color and all.....I miss that temperamental Beeotch.... I would get the carb setting right and they would slowly go to crappy, rough idle and very torque like feel with little gas off the line but was a dog after that? Anyway other than the motor in the pic the car was very similar but at the cost of 7K instead of 140K? ouch!

This one is pretty funny to me. Acting like it is a big deal that he reduced the price to three grand for a six that needs a total restore. I would give him $500 for all the work and parts money it would take to get that back on the road.

Wow there's a number of things funny with that one. There is a 9" rear end, BUT it's not included hahaha.

Also that 6 cylinder engine and tranny came out of a 1966 california special... uhmm first of all there was no california special in '66 and I'm pretty sure california specials were 302's and up.

and yeah i would have trouble giving him 500 bucks, it has no doors, fenders, or interior. Geesh
