Rough Condition             –             Too bad to lie about
Some Rust                         -              Some rust holes you can stick your head through... the rest are *big*
Parts car                              -              there's a piece of trim is isn't broken, rusted, or missing
Immaculate                       -              recently washed
Concours                            -              recently waxed
Engine quiet                      -              uses 90-weight oil
Needs engine work       -              needs engine
Needs minor overhaul  -              needs total restoration
Needs major overhaul  -              needs to be put out of its misery
Burns no oil                       -              is all leaks out
Rebuilt engine                  -              Cleaned the spark plugs
Drive it away                     -              I live on a hill
Drive It anywhere           -              On the back of a wrecker
Desirable classic               -              No one wants it
Rare classic                        -              No one wants it, even when it was new
Stored 20 years                -              In a farmers field
Ran when stored            -              So did the titanic, and it has better odds of running now
Never apart                       -              Bolts too rounded to loosen
Solid as a rock                   -              Rusted solid
Restored with 0 miles   -              Won't start
Restored with 2 miles   -              Won't stay running
Older restoration            -              First owner washed it
Good investment           -              Can't be worth much less
No time to restore it      -              Can't obtain parts
95% complete                  -              Other 5% doesn't exist
Other interests conflict-              Spouse said "Either that #!!@?#*!!! Thing goes or I go!"

I also love when they write "mechanic owned". I went to look at this car when I was in college. This kid took me for a test drive he must have been 18. I said "so who is the mechanic?" and he looks back and says, "Me". Yeah ok buddy.
