John_S_in_Penna Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 (edited) I phoned the number in the ad, just to clear things up. I told the answering machine that Buick never made a Royal, and that the car was likely a Chrysler. The seller called me back and said that his nephew put the ad on Craig's List. The seller hadn't seen the discombobulated ad, but he knew what the car was! Let's see whether the ad gets revised.

60FlatTop Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Around here we move the "running and driving" cars when we mow the lawn. Well, maybe not always, but we get as close as we can and then use a weed whacker around the wheels. You never know when Better Homes and Gardens will do a surprise photo shoot!

JACK M Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I chased to the other end of the state to retrieve a running and driving car that didn't have a carburetor or a starter. Didn't buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff_a Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 (edited) In craigslist-speak that means: It ain´t a Buick. It don´t run. It don´t drive. You don´t need no stinkin´ title in minniesota(yeah , the mice ate it). It probably was most of those things when they parked it in a field 10 years ago. On the bright side, there aren´t any dogs living in the car, and they didn´t say ¨easily restorable¨.

Restorer32 Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 You need to be politically correct. There.is no such thing as a car without a title. They are just undocumented. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiKi5156B Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 If I’m interested in a car and find out it doesn’t have a title(craigslisters are not always truthful imagine that) I reply with, probably stolen. No one has texted back to dispute that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
