Doctor Ordered Sale: 1977 Chrysler New Yorker Brougham

, , , 5

If you surf craigslist on a regular basis, you’ve probably seen everything. People claiming all kinds of stuff that clearly isn’t true (this is one of one) and then random threats director at strangers (if nobody buys it, I’m going to polish the headlights and then double the price)…but this next advert has something I’ve never seen before…a seller who claims he is dying and needs to dispose of his car collection in a “pre-death” estate sale so his next of kin doesn’t have to bother…and while I respect the sentiment, I’m kinda horrified.  Not horrified enough to NOT post this…but wow. Find this 1977 Chrysler New Yorker Brougham offered for $5400 in Live Oaks, GA via craigslist. Tip from Rock On!
