Insane, crazy, or thrillseekers

exactly

 

its your thread, reap what you sow,... why should i avoid a thread because iam irritated? thats b*** ackwards, im going to say something... and if we were face to face id do the same ****in thing. not everyone is going to agree with your reasoning let alone ignore it.
again, you need to figure out how to "DEFINE" what a word means... morality isnt the question, i never questioned your morals... iam simply questioning your common sense and wondering what the **** use is it to post a thread complaining about the people you are trying to sell to.
it is easier to just state in an add that it is NOT roadworthy... if you did that id sympathise, but you didnt and look where we are now....

 

yeah...wasting your not so precious time...see ya at Primer Nats...though I won't be driving the "gay wagon"...it's not roadworthy

 

I'd ask the question just to get a read on what you think of your car since you've seen it more than I have. If I get something like "Well, I drive it back and forth to work." or "I put new tires on it a couple months ago, but the alternator's been acting up." Or "I drive it but I haven't made any long trips." I'd probably figure it was worth a look.

If I get "What the **** do you want for $650. bucks." or something like this thread, I'd figure you're probably an *** looking to turn something somebody gave you for free to make some quick cash off the first ****er that rolls up so I'd p***.

It works both ways. I've traveled all over this country in cheap cars over the years and had few problems, most easily fixed like a battery, plug wire, fan belt, alternator or a U-Joint. The reason is because I can usually spot the jerk that puts fresh paint on a car with sawdust in the rear end and a pan full of metal shavings or the guy who's selling because he knows the ******'s shot or it uses 2 quarts of oil per tank of gas long before I ever see the car. All by asking stupid questions. So ya, I'd ask. And I'd probably p***.

 

In my best Napoleon Dynamite: "Lucky!"

I used to tell my late friend Don about some of the deals here on the HAMB, mostly cars out in CA, TX, OK, etc. He's say "why don't we go get it and drive it back?" I'd say because it's a 40-50 year old car with in some cases 40-50 year old bearings, gaskets, hoses, etc.

He said "As long as it's running good now, we take it easy and we take a bunch of tools, we'll make it anywhere. If something breaks we'll find an auto parts store or a junkyard and replace 'em."

This was coming from a retired mechanic who didn't wear a watch, have a wife and lived in an $350/month apartment.

Yes, you can drive anything that runs anywhere, but if something breaks, you better have the time, tools and/or money to fix it.

 

Back up a minute...my apologies as I allowed myself to get caught up in a little bit of the bitterness in some of the replies to the original thread...first of all I am selling it for an old friend who is no longer capable/flexible enough to deal with selling it and his other cars/items due to older age and some health issues, second of all if I was an *** trying to make a quick buck on a freebie I would have sold it to the first guy who wanted to take a chance on its roadworthiness...two ways of looking at it I guess...better safe than sorry or hope for the best and expect the worst

 

the time spent being irritated with your logic is not even a blip in my daily tasks.
...and hey, dont tell ME its not roadworthy... put that in your add so "dumb*** ****ers" stop asking you questions. its real simple man, use your head and your *** will follow.

you seriously dont want to drive all the way from Ramona to primer nats and have words with me, but if you really feel the need..... **** thats funny man, that sounds like "ill meet you after school!"...hahaha!!
