CHEAP USED CAR FOR SALE
'74 Ford Mustang II - $500
This was a car I bought about a year ago, just to get around town with.
That's about all it's good for, too: just to get around town with.
It runs ok and the tires are pretty new, but that's about it. It has no
radio, the acceleration is sluggish, the clutch is sticky, the back-hood
door latch doesn't work (you must prop it up with a stick), and its gas
mileage is probably no better than about 10-15 miles per gallon (it takes
regular gas). In general, its an American car, made during the time when
American cars were built VERY poorly (no comments about present-day
conditions, please!).
The $500 price quoted above is just because all my friends tell me that a
running car MUST be worth at least $500. (Note: none of these so-called
friends has offered to buy the car!) I suppose I'll bargain with you to
lower the price. If you can sing well, or if your sister is pretty and
has a pleasant personality, this may be significant in reducing the price.
Please call me (Dan) at either XXX-XXXX or else XXX-YYYY if you're
interested.

Very informative lens. 5 stars! I'd like to let you all know about another Online Classifieds site called www.Clickapost.com. It would be nice to see it added to your lens. One of the great things about this site is that they allow the users to use VIDEO to sell their items. Users can post items on Clickapost and even link to them on Craigslist. Users can also leave comments on posts and rate users which allows you to get some background and feedback on buyers and sellers. It's still in Beta and we have come a long way since going live in June. It's great for selling higher profile items where the seller would like to show more details about an item. It's great for selling properties, cars, advertising a service, or just watching some videos. Best part is that, IT's FREE!! To find out more, check out our lens at http://www.squidoo.com/clickapost or go to www.clickapost.com.
Can't wait till the Video Personals start to get popular. :)
