    You can also save $10 by buying it through his Chicago ad!

    It does look like a nice car. It's surprising that he can take the time to post it on multiple craigslist sites but can't be bothered to talk much about it nor post more than a single photo in each case.

    You would certainly think seller could do better.

    Can we at least ascertain merely with the two photos if it's a garaged car or not? Looks like it is to me. Where are the mud flaps though? That would not work in my driveway...

    The 402 area code is Nebraska. Another CL ad runner that is a complete idiot. Running an ad in multiple CL areas is really counter-productive. Plenty of sites that aggregate all of the CL ads for a particular thing and where a person can see ALL of the ads for that thing, nationwide.

    The price is one of those super-ridiculously-low prices with an odd asking price, that indicate a scam ad, in any case.

    I'm not sure everyone knows about those Craig's List search engines. If I were to put the 'Way Back Machine' up for sale for instance, I'd place it in Portland, Seattle, San Francisco, L.A. and Orange County, as well as my local area.

    Is this 'multiple C/L listing service' free?

    Yeah! I hate inquiring on something, thinking it's local (you can't tell by a phone number, especially a cell!), and finding out that it is six states away.

    Here is a great site to search every US CL location at one time, and it includes ebay listings, too:

    http://www.searchtempest.com/

    VERY easy to follow, and quick, too.

    Yes. You just have to go to each individual CL and list it there. Each Craig's List is it's own local entity.
    Some MAY offer the option to place your same ad in ADJACENT CL areas......

    Thank you. I'll have to look for that. I know they allow you to link like item ads, but this could really help.

    That was my car a few years back. I sold it to a guy in Scottsbluff.
    I have No Idea what's going on with it now. I will say it was Stunning! Just too many cars.
    Maybe someone grabbed photos of it from way back and is using it to represent one they have
    for sale. Maybe a scam...?????:scratchchin::scratchchin::scratchchin:
