SuperDuper Ultra Rare Capri for sale!
« on: April 25, 2011, 12:05:00 PM »

This has to be the rarest Capri in existence!  My guess is either a one-off factory prototype that escaped being destroyed by Ford, or a stupid owner. Tough call...

Hmmm, I'm thinking it's gotta be a one of a kind Ford prototype. There is NO WAY someone would actually post a car for sale unless they knew EXACTLY what they had, right? For $1500, I better jump on that one!

I swear, I have BIG issues with idiots who have no clue as to what they are selling. Seriously, if you are selling something, at least take the time to know what you have. Not the little details, but at least the frigging year, make and model. And "since they are the same car". Really? REALLY?? How dumb do you have to be? My mother knows nothing about cars, and she knows they are different. My Daughter just turned 5 and knows the difference. Un-frigging-believable!

PS: I think we should have a "stupidist ad" type thread going.... that could be lots of fun!!!

Could be a long thread! Bet you noticed a big difference getting rid of that monster metal hood & replacing it with your Fiberglas one. Too bad they're a PITA to make!

Actually, the fiberglass hood has yet to be installed on a car! The hood on the 'Roo now is the stock metal hood, with the scoops grafted in. It was the prototype for the 'glass hood....
I am building a new "Super Roo, from the ground up, and the 'glass hood will be installed on that.

Ah yes, a thread for stupid listings might work very well. For the sake of other readers, we should probably screencap it & post the image so others can still see it if the listing goes down.

And HAH! Exactly the same as a miata?? wow. not even close!

Hmm, I wonder if they worked out all the bugs for the '95 model! Just makes you shake your head and laugh.

Russ, did you get a reply from the person with the "fiberglass" Capri? They have changed the ad and it suddenly isn't fiberglass anymore!
