    Real Stage 1 with older 455, but easy to replace?
    95% of Stage 1's are fake?
    Rust in trunk floor, but easy fix?
    Will take "best offer" No low ballers, So list it for $1.00 in the title?
    Is this a real ad?

    Perhaps this ad can serve as the basis for a thread on for sale ad etiquette--in other words the do an don'ts regarding for sale ads. This one is a poster child for the do not's.

    I'll never understand how people get Mecum and Craigslist confused. Does he really expect someone to randomly email in and offer 50k?

    I love how often you see "make offer, no low ballers" on Craigslist. Whatta joke.
    Anything other than outrageously high offers they consider "low balling" because 9 times outta 10 they think their stuff is plated in gold. I just sold a car on c-list after swearing it off for some time now. I'm reminded why I swore it off. All too often its an online cesspool of humanity. The weirdos just come outta the woodwork quite regularly.

    These ads are easy to De-code. What it says is the car is worth $15,000 and he will go as low as $28,000.

    Everyone that reads this should email him a offer of $1. A non-numbers match stage 1 that needs restoration if it's a true stage 1. How could the block have gotten stolen and not the rest of the parts?

    It was out of the car, sitting in the back of a truck getting ready to go to the machine shop and the truck got stolen.

    If it has an older 455 motor, and is a 1970, how much older could the motor be!?

    This same guy also has a QQ 70 X. Both are currently on ebay as a package deal starting at $50k.

    I always marvel at statements like "This car restored would bring 55k and up to the right buyer..." Take that info to your banker, and try to obtain a loan for restoration of the car. One of life's bitter lessons will be quickly learned.
