Yet one more craigslist scam 991 ad.
 

(EDIT - I of course meant 911, but am unable to edit the thread title.)

These keep popping up. Typically too-good-to-be-true pricing and no local contact info. 1972 Porsche 911

I Googled one of the phrases in the text and it turns out this same car sold on eBay last October for $55K.

Wonder if this one is showing up in other areas.

What's weird to me is that does not seem like an unreasonably low price. A few short years ago, it would have been a ridiculously high price for that car. It's funny that he says, "not many around in original condition", and he's just described a car for sale that is anything but original...lol.

A '72 T targa with MFI missing and flares added, needing resto is a $55k car now? Whoever is paying these prices is going to feel like the guy who bought Blackberry stock in 2008 pretty soon.

I saw that today and didn't think it was ridiculously cheap for a Targa. How did that car sell for $55k last year???

The scammers apparently pickup other "real" ads and cut & paste the text and photos.

I used the "old boots" phrase to search and found an apparently real ad - an eBay sale from last year:
