Default Classic ad/BS

I do not want to be judgmental here (hope I am not wrong), but ad# 1830573 is a classic BS type ad. Much like "Hal396" or "Jacky 427" & other handles often seen here; advertising show cars (at outdoor car shows), that are NOT their cars, advertised incorrectly (Pro-Steet description) on a stock higher value classic value car, showing only the car with the hood up, no pic of the body. Here is someones nice 68/67 Camaro that is a probably a clean optioned car with rallies appearing nicely done, but w/a "narrowed 12 bolt" rear you cannot see on it... a car appearing fully restored & mostly stock. You can have her for just 12K.... if you don't need the ACTUAL CAR!! What a joke. I see these ad's all the time like this... I am just venting... thanks for listening & be careful. Scoot

My Bad... this ad says: narrowed 9" w/ 31X18" tires.... but you get the picture. Look at the car, it does not have 31X18" tires on the back & 15" Rallies w/ Goodyear Eagles on the front!! I have seen so many of these ad's I can't even keep up with the BS anymore!

i know what you mean rigs, are they state "pro-street" and the
car is not back halved or mini tubbed or they just don't show the
entire car, yup, been looking for a project car and ran into
the same ads and some they don't put a price to start out at
and then it makes you look like a tire kicker for asking :cry:

Here is my message to him yesterday Signs... typical answer. I call BS. His car is someone elses car which is a decent SS 396 appearing all stock for the most part... with rallies & Goodyear Eagles on front. I have seen this A$$-Clown have other rare/optioned cars with the piture of an outdoor car show & the pic of the hood up only.... what a joke. I asked him below if the actual owner knew he had his car for sale for 12K. Then he called me "goffy"...LOL.
