    Default FORD MUSTANG 1982 - $2399 California hmmmm???

    http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/cto/4700646068.html

    I didn't know where to post this. Could have been in the 5.0 misplacement thread, the can't believe craigslist thread or a few more.

    Read the description it says no Collectors please...that is a shame as I would think this would be the the bucket list

    I will admit that I would like to see it with the top off.Name:  mustang wtf1.jpg

    The 5.0 emblem is so ashamed (of what it's mounted to) that it appears to be running away. Lol...I think this one has bee posted before. Surprise, surprise...it's still available.

    From the "Among the goofy stuff we see in ads file"...

    His ad reads, "NO COLLECTORS PLEASE" ---- and I go to check out the car. Since this guy doesn't know me, he asks, "Are you a collector?" Since we live in Liar's World, I say, "No."

    On the flip side, if I responded, "Yes" ---- would he really say, "I can't sell the car to you" ???

    No collectors doesn't make any sense? Why would he want to limit his potential buyer pool? Anyone have any ideas?

    So what exactly do you call this rare specimen? It appears to be a modified T-top car that now has a convertible style rear hatch covering. So it's not really a convertible, it's not really a T-top car, and it's not really a Targa top? So besides a HOT MESS what is it!

    I think " no collector" translates to- looking for someone who knows nothing about these cars.

    Price correction: $23.99 plus tax! Still overpriced at that!
