Free, But NOT Free: 1972 Opel GT
I got really excited when I read the title of this next carvertisment. FREE OPAL GTI. Except its not FREE, not an OPAL, and not a GTI. Its like that scuba diving vacation I took in the Sahara Desert. I still feel cheated on that one, but the seller got me all hopeful and then ends with a “Not free, but will consider reasonable offers.” I’m thinking free is a pretty reasonable offer for a derelict Opel GT…but I’m no expert, I’m just a guy with too many cars in my driveway, garage, and clogging up the street to pick up another derelict. CFlo, any interest? Find this 1972 Opel GT offered for FREE, NOT FREE in Simi Valley, CA via freebook marketfleece.

Now the ask is $10K, which is what I consider to be “not free”. Good luck with that, buddy. You may be sitting on this car for a little while.
Oh boy! Free! I finally found the holy grail! Rush to open his ad … not free. Fooled again. Guys who advertise this way won’t get my business. Like the guy that threatens to send it to the crusher if it’s not gone by Friday. Wants $500 from you for it, or he’ll give it to the scrap dealer. Yeah, right. Ad etiquette has disappeared.
