1973 Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser

Not a bad looking car, but the seller is a few cards short of a full deck.

I'll give him credit for a unique way of obscuring the license plate in this photo. Most sellers who try to do that give us a view of the fine manicure their fingernails have received or just hang a rag over it. He sticks his foot up.




He apparently failed to realize, however, that you can also see the license plate in this photo. Not too bright.




Are you paying attention, people of earth? It's an Arkansas plate, and the number is 731 RGK. Remember that. 731 RGK.

 

I've never understood the reason for hiding your license plate number. It is out there for all the world to see when you're driving around, but post a photo and now you've got to hide it? No comprendo.
As for this particular seller hiding it cleverly in one photo and not another, well, he is from Arkansas! ha ha
(just kidding--had to say it!)

I believe the theory is if someone sees your plates on the internet they will find out where you live and steal your car and murder your family in the middle of the night.

 

But this, of course, could NOT happen if someone happened to see your license plate while your car was in the parking lot of the local grocery store.

 

Murderous car thieves only frequent car message boards and for sale ads. I mean really, when was the last time you saw one at a grocery store?
