"restored"

Better word, not my invention: "restroyed." (Tram, is that yours?)

photos where they can't be bothered to move all the rubbish/tarp that is on the car, or even to move it outside into the daylight.
'atmospheric' photos at sunset that show you nothing.

my favorite is the flipper trailer photos at the car wash. or photos that didn't resize right and are the size of a crumb with no way to zoom in.

'Was told that the motor was running at some point.' :lol:

"Parked for a few years."

"I drove it back there."




"It'll fire right up with some fresh gas."

"Nope, I'm gonna restore it some day."

although I tend to agree with that, I will let that phrase slide if the car in in concourse shape.

"Patina".... That's not Patina, It's called RUSTY!!!

"NOS'.... I guess not many even know what it stands for anymore

How about " Survivor".... They all are survivors....

"My loss is your gain"

Everett- this entire thread's remarks should be compiled and be required reading by any schmo submitting an ad here. IF the seller's ad contains anything listed- your sophisticated algorithms identify and reject the submitter for 30 days.

Good idea, that.^
