As seen on Los Angeles Craigslist, under the title "Grandma's old grocery getter - $3000"

link: http://losangeles.craigslist.org/car/146517684.html


My grandma gave this car to me 5 months ago and I dunno what to do with it. It was granpas car and grandma said he bought it new around Christmas of 1969. They were pretty wild back then and she said he spent a lot of money for it and she was mad because they had trouble paying some bills because the insurance cost so much and it got lousy gas mileage. Anyway I have my cool Civic with killer sound system fast blinkers, Greddy tip, and Spearco seats sittin low and cool with 17's all around. I don't want to get rid of the Civic so Grandmas car has gotta go. The car is cool lookin in a retro way but its not my style.
Grandma's looking for all the papers on it and she said Grandpa saved everything from the time it was new. When we find the stuff we can tell you more. I looked at it and I wrote down stuff about it.
The car is yellow like a lemon and is black inside. On the front of it by the hood it says plymouth. There is one light on each side in the front with square clear lights on top by the hood. The bumper is yellow like the car and there are two round lights below the bumper. The rear lights have three slashes on each side and the bumper in the back is shiny. There are two holes in the bottom with exhaust comin out. The space between the rear lights is black and it says cuda on the side. The hood is cool it has a scoop that pops out through the hood and is silverish looking. there are little emblems on the scoop that say hemicuda and circles with some cable at the front. The car is a stick shift cause my civic is and this car has three pedals and a shiny lever coming out of the floor.
Grandma took great care of it and he did teach Grandma how to drive it. She used it to go the grocery store a long time ago with it but shes just taken it around the block once in awhile for years. She did get lots of attention when she drove it. She can't drive it anymore and I don't want it so thats why its for sale. It is kinda loud and it gets squat for gas mileage.
Send us a reply and we'll get back to you.

Ha!  I can only image how many rabid moparites are emailing so he can laugh at them.  And the black Tahoes are circling as we speak.

Haha, funny, but kinda cruel in a way! Can you imagine all the people that have been looking for a car like that for years and come up on that ad? :icon_smile_big:

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

Many years ago  "friend" of mine put my 'cuda ragtop in the local paper with my phone number as a joke. Had to leave the phone off the hook after the first evening. Was getting calls for months after.
I haven't paid him back yet and the fear he has of the retribution is just as good as doing something.

i did something like that to one of my friends who parked a car in my yard to "work on it" which didn't bother me as long as he was indeed working on it, well i think that lasted for 3 days then he lost interest, after he ripped the front suspension apart and took off all the wheels...i told him for 3 weeks to at least get the wheels on it so i could role it around the yard, and ever weekend he'd say " oh i will" well i got tired of it, drug it to the road and road "for sale $75" with his cell phone number...needless to say he got it moved
