Shifty, where in Queens did you live? I lived in Sunnyside and Elmhurst. It is indeed tough on a car.

On that first one, he says "too mush to list." Yeah, it's mush alright, and I hate that phrase even when it's spelled right = LAZY. You got a car to sell; then make a pitch!
 
On the second one, who in their right mind is going to buy a souped-up Mustang II for anywhere near the money he's put into it?

I saw an ad on Craigslist last night (CL is blocked by our IT dept at work). It read something like:
 
Bike - $1000. Call 205-XXX-XXXX.
 
Can't you at least say mtn bike or road bike? I like the advice here for my car ad, but some people take it just a little too far.

Yes, especially when none of that money went into the engine...so you have to drop in a V8. That's a very expensive hood scoop!

original v6 german engine about 100 hp car is great for a show engine could use a cleaning
 
What the F does anyone care if the 100 hp engine is German or American?????? It's a dog. The nicest V8 mustang IIs on Earth are tough to get 10 grand for.
 
What do we say??? Take some better pics and hope to get 3 grand?

AND it's an automatic besides. I don't think the guy is going to see the other side of $5000 on this one. Ironically, even the real King Cobra II he aspired to isn't worth what he is asking.
 
Too MUSH MUSHTANG -- aside from never seeing his investment back, who want to drive that....that...THING....on the street anyway. What is that ducting in the passenger seat all about?
 
Re; QUEENS: I lived in Glendale, right near Jamaica. Not a bad part of Queens as things go, but it's kinda tough, kinda blue collar. There are a few nice areas--if you see Forest Hills in a CL ad, that might be a decent car that had some care.

Only thing I could guess was an iced down intercooler for the turbo, so he could put his Buds in there, too...

I was thinking that, but then I said, no, nobody would be that crazy to put the intercooler icebox in the passenger seat.

Oh, hell yes I like it.
The 3.0 Milano was one of those I definitely kept an eye out for, but I don't stand a chance in hell of finding one in the NE.
 
Still, its a $3k car, at best, IMHO.
