Guilty as charged . I'm telling the truth though. The engine I'm selling doesn't leak and the shell is free of rust!

"was running when parked 5 years ago"

"Only needs "x", simple fix with a 2.99 part from Advnace Auto, I just never got around to fixing"

Or the once a week bump from folks selling a beat 77 924 for 3000 FIRM and wondering why they don't get any action.

Or,.............How come the oil pressure is low, even when revving the engine?? Answer: "don't worry, early 911's don't make very good oil pressure".

LOL - love that. If it were a simple fix, in the time you write about it and explain it, you would have fixed it. I don't want a car from a guy like that, that's for sure. Too busy to do an oil change too, probably.

I think the word `RARE`is so over used:
Rare air cooled model
Rare factory options
rare color combination
rare model 1 of only xxx produced

Totally sick of seeing Rare...
