I guess you don’t understand the concept of funny. Funny means humorous as in something that some one who is not under the influence of a mind altering substance would laugh at

Mmm not that suss really. Yes a tool to go on rambling about people calling,leaving numbers involving police for time wasters etc. Half the ad is talking about time wasters. Also if there is damage he should be advertising it straight up not forcing people to call and leave a number so he can call back to talk about the damage. Someone tried to ask him on ebay and he wouldn't.

He isn't doing a great job to sell his car. However looks like he has been a long time ebay member and has 100% feedback so will be a legit sale I think

Not showing pics of the damage, The fact he says 7.5k spent on upgraded brembos, looking closely at both rear wheel pics they are PBR rears, std on GT. Rear sensors are std, Seats either have been re-upholstered or not original.
VIN number removed from ad (looking at revision history)...Looks sus to me.

Someone advertising a P6 LTD as a "4.9 auto import" not sure what the hell they're on about here!! All P6s were made standard with a 351, and were all obviously made in Australia.

I can't explain the 4.9 but maybe the "Import" refers to...

Quote:
In 1977, a limited edition LTD "Silver Monarch" model was released and was only available in a "Stardust Silver" colour, a specially imported silver vinyl roof and a Cranberry red velour interior.
I believe the vinyl roof was ex Lincoln.....??

Well the car looks a Silver Monarch with its cranberry red interior and the silver vinyl roof so I think you're onto something there.

Still, seems strange using the word import in the context of an ad title for a (very) Australian car.

Thanks for helping to suss out!

That’s the funniest thing I’ve seen here in a long time. I love the dog hanging the patch at 1:28.
