This has got to be a scam. No pic and can't speak or spell English

Just on a whim I called the number. Rang through and went to voice mail. Didn't leave a message, but chances are that yes, it is a scam. Anyone with that car and asking that kind of price would take a bit more care with the posting I do believe. I ran across a 65 convertible in Vegas on CL, and the price was a bit too good to be true. The pics also had watermarking in them for a now defunct website, and the phone number went to google voice. Both things in combo told me it wasn't legit at all, so I flagged it as prohibited.

I hate the fact that these scammers are trying to pull crap like this. From what I understand, in some places, the CL boards are totally overrun with so many scams that the people trying to legitimately sell things are now looking elsewhere, as it's too much of a hassle to weed out the good from the bad.

$85k is a good price? LOL

This is one of the main drawbacks of Craigslist, which I DO love for so many reasons....the sellers and buyers can be the worst flakes and scammers around. This car is a bargain at $850, not so much I wouldn't think at $85,000 or they would get the ad proof read! Who knows, it might be $8,500...but people constantly put in some low figure on the ad so that everyone will look....it's pretty dumb and you just end up having cranky people reading your ads....
