[DMCForum] Re: low mileage car

["Joe OBrien" <joeyoseppijoe@xxxxxxxxx>]

Because most of the "sellers" are used car salesman types or wannabe 
car collectors who use the term original or untouched like they are 
speaking about a 60's muscle car.

They are ignorant & dumb, and are just trying to make a buck. 
Auctions like this show it so well.

The 83 automatic in PA looks like a good car though. Not beat and 
worn out looking like so many we see. Too bad the moron put lights 
and a big ass toggle switch on the console. Really, what the hell 
are people thinking latley? The 725 mile 81 that looks like shit, 
and the 900 mile 83 with the drilled console?? MORONS!!!! Too bad it 
is an automatic though. If it was a black interior with stick, I'd 
move some stuff around to acquire that one.
