The ad has now been removed.  Too bad, I needed a good laugh today...

Sorry, it was active when I clicked on it.
If real, it was possibly a good deal, depending on the actual condition of the "427".  No interior shots.  Oh well...

B4 this one, it was a '70 mint mach 1 for 12k. Owner is always from another state desperate for a sale to cover the husbands funeral. Send them a $500. payment to hold it. They just nick a pic. from the web of somebody else's car. In the case of the Mach 1, I actually saw the same pics of it for sale else where. Called the guy and he said he knew about it but there wasn't anything he could do about it. Car was actually 40k. That was in the local shopper paper. If it's too good to be true...
