The laughable craigslist FC thread

Post link then copy and paste text. Insert pics. We know these links dont stay active forever.

NO WIN.

NO POST.

Those are the rules. Shall we proceed?


This guy made me

http://charlotte.craigslist.org/cto/1109508750.html

"""""Great Car. Some of the best suspension I've seen on a sports car and has tons of potential!!!!
FAST CAR -Drives great as it with custom performance exhaust and kn air filter upgrades. Motor and transmission only have 85K on them. I have extra transmission, rear end and driveshaft.

FASTER - easily upgradeable car by swaping a RX-& turbo motor in (only around 1K) OR swapping a LS1 V-8 in it.

OR this is what I was going to do ...
swap a RX-7 twin turbo motor from a 93+. The motor bolts right up to the 88 rx-7 transmission!!! Then not only would you have a fast and furious car but you would have a serious sleeper too. Nobody would guess you would have that kind of hps under the hood. Then I was going to go on PINKS and decimate all challengers.

Well, I can still dream.

Price is firm will consider trades of your non-running project plus cash, but I emphasize cash b/c I need some...""""""""









This guy is call-a-thon worthy.

Non-running projects plus cash? PLUS CASH?!!!!!

I think with the amount of online users doing **** with their cell phones using itap or whatever it's called, there's bound to be spelling and grammar errors on a large scale.

Great project car, Engine and body complete I will accept offers starting at $1200. Please leave a dollar amount above $1200. when you write me. I forget to mention it is a convertible! NON- turbo, it does need work , fuel pump for one and DEQ for another. I know there are ROTARY enthusiasts out there so hurry and write soon!

6 grand and only 130,000 miles.

Seems like a great deal (if you have some sort of mental disability and/or crack problem)

"Rotaries have unlimited RPM's!"

Interesting. How good of a mudder is it? I would think you need torque rather than RPMs in a good mudder.
