Poor baby. I had a Schwinn Varsity until my junior year when I went upscale with a Reynolds 531 Libertas from Belgium.
 
I borrowed Mom's Galaxy 500 one week around Thanksgiving and didn't know that the winter antifreeze hadn't been put in and cracked the block when a cold snap moved in.

I had a Schwinn Varsity my freshman year at OSU, which had a sad demise one day as I was on my way to class. I was zipping past a line of cars on the right, in the imaginary "bike-lane" when a MG Midget turned right into a parking lot right in front of me. I flew over his car. All I hit war the radio antenna.
 
My bike, however hit the right rear fender of his car, bending the forks back to where the bike was no longer rideable, and messing the rear quarter of the MG... totally my fault. However, he agreed to "call it even". (Lucky me!)

I did not know MG's were made that well. I would have thought a Schwinn Varsity would just about total a MG.

From your description the incident was totally the fault of the MG driver. No wonder he agreed to "call it even".

Well, I have a nice clean '98 Contour sitting in front of the house for sale. Only 90,600 miles, new tires, real nice looking.
 
Only asking $2,295. But, since I like you, 2K cash. Just come to NJ and pick it up.
 
I picked 2 lousy weekends to stick it on "that certain free site". Crappy weather, and the Eagles were playing. Got some interest, but only a couple of low ball offers. Good thing I am not desperate to sell!

We sold the RX300 for our asking price of $7500. I was amazed at how quickly it sold.

I haven't gotten any word recently on my son's attempt to sell the Subaru. I suspect it's even more important now because he lost his part time job and isn't working, so he'll need gas and insurance money for the Mustang.
 
I know he cleaned it up inside and out and I suspect that he, too, is using "that certain free site".
 
Congratulations to those who have sold (or are attempting to sell) their cars.

Are y'all trying to keep craigslist a secret or is there another "certain free site" out there? I don't know anyone using Kiiji or however you spell it.
