I’ve spoken to the moron that is trying to flip this car in FB. Can’t decide if he is belligerently stupid or a lying scumbag for trying to pass this as a low mileage car.


I love this every time I see it. "only 5200 miles".

Why? What did he say about it that makes you think that?

What makes you think that isn't actual mileage?

That car has been repainted. The carb has been replaced, engine tin repainted. Such a low mileage car would not need a new carb.

Oh sure. It could be the actual mileage, granted, but since there are only 5 digits in the odometer there is no way to be sure. Some people are young enough to have never seen a 5 digit odometer. Maybe don't realize that 5000 might be 105000. Might just be mistaken. Or might actually be a lying scumbag.

Unless you know, it sat for years.

So, to recap, no one on this board has any real evidence that the seller is lying. Got it.

Put in a huge order with cip1 for my remaining brake overhaul parts. Added in some door handle/trunk/deck lid seals since they were 25% off.

Should've just went with West Coast Metric. The fit was rather "tight".

d'oh!

Apple, I’ve seen entire bugs for sale for years in the Samba Classifieds. I assume they also advertise them in Craigslist.

You’d think that after a good six months, these dinks would, either stop advertising, or lower their prices. That’s how car sales works.

Trying to decide whether or not to buy this-

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/515864108890009/?surface=product_details

Good price but seller pissed me off since the ad says it's in a town I'm driving through tomorrow, but when I messaged him he said he's actually in another town 20 miles away. Not sure it's worth driving that far out of the way since I really don't need it... and I hate liars.

I see all these crazy prices, then go and buy brake switches for $4 each. Laughing

They just forgot to add the decimal. It's supposed to be $14.99.
