How not to write a craigslist ad....

1964 GREENBRIER CORVAIR VAN

I'VE JUST BEEN SENTENCED TO 10 YEARS IN JAIL, THEREFORE I AM UPDATING THIS AD IN HOPES OF GETTING IT SOLD RIGHT AWAY.
140HP,NO LEAKS, GARAGED SINCE 1998, JUST RESTORED, 2012 TAGS, NEW BRAKES, EVERYTHING WORKS, RUN STRONG, CLEAN TITLE, VAN IS CLEAN ,NEEDS NOTHING. CALL OR TEXT 408-387-4491

shiiiiiitttttttt........500 bux? i'd risk it if the title is legit......

something about "10 years" makes me doubt it a little....

Having owned a Corvair in the past I question the statement "needs nothing"

For Sale: Parachute. Only Used Once, Never Opened, Small Stain...

If its 10 years its not jail, its prison!

How about this one...

Caught my husband cheating after I got my annual check up. Trying to pay him back for the disrespect he showed me!!!! He wroks afternoons and weekends, looking to get an STD to give back to him. We have been "TRYING" to work it out but I have a HORRIBLE FEELING.

Who wants to help me get back at this mo-fo?!?!?

I am a BBW and live in riverside. 420 friendly.

LOL, translation: "I am fat and so ugly you'd have to be stoned to even think of getting it on with me."

Great price. A 110 is a better engine for a Greenbrier, but heck, a 140 is worth that price alone!

This is one of my favorites. Too long to post:

Scary...

Even more scary when you figure that it's very likely a Fiat X1/9...

(hard-top "convertible", front trunk, might be a 70's...)
