Did he think it would be easier to sell it as "Baja Bug" instead of "Dune Buggy with VW Bug shell"?

It continuously amazes me that this is the level of effort people put into marketing something they expect to get thousands of dollars for. At what level is it worth spelling correctly? What price point do they feel necessitates complete thoughts being expressed in whole sentences? How much money needs to be involved for common basic information about the product to be included in the listing?

Is it just an evolution from having to abbreviate everything in newspaper classifieds? Do they think they're being charged by the word? But the terrible spelling and grammar is just pathetic and has no excuse. If you can't spell, then find a friend to write the drat thing for you.

I had to look at HF's site to confirm, but yeah - that hunk of poo poo is only $20 new. Might as well keep it since you can always use a drill around the home. This seems to be typical of many HF customers though.

Well, you see, he's providing a very valuable service to the community. For example, what if it's 2 AM in the morning, I have to drill a hole in order to save the world, and the 5 portable drills I have, have been mischievously stolen by some evil goon hating furries. Obviously, at that time any tool store is closed. What is a hero to do? We can all feel safe knowing that all I have to do is call Ron, and I can become victorious in my entirely fictitious scenario.

Maybe it's parked in a bad neighborhood and he can't guarantee that the gas won't be siphoned off in a couple of days.

I have never heard of them actually weighing the vehicles at a LeMons event either. They just eyeball it, so if you can make it look lighter, even if it isn't, you would probably get the go ahead too.

I have a feeling the LeMons guys would give you a pass if you showed up in a caged limo. Especially if it were a caged, chopped limo.

Wouldn't it fold in half if you took the roof off? Even if its body-on-frame, it's sooo looong. In my head it'd just sag down and scrape the road, roofless.

Cut the roof off. Move the driver's seat and controls to the back seat. Have like 3/4 of the length of the car be hood, or have it be just covered up with an exposed cockpit like some old race cars.

Truth in advertising, much like the one I posted earlier that had a "gay rear end spoiler": And yes, I truly do believe that your stripped-out 30-year-old RX-7 with fart-can quality parts runs like the day it was built. I loving hate looking through Craigslist.
