There is at least one buyer on Craigslist who is paying attention.

So I’ve been trying to sell the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! for a couple months now. A few weeks or so ago, Opposaurus made one of his famous photoshops of it. It looks like a Previa mated with a Roadmaster, which frankly looks pretty damn cool. He dared me to include the photochop in the ad, and what can I say, the dude abides.

Insert photo of Roadmaster-Previa here eat shit Kinja you suck.

Well, this morning, I got this email:

That last pic....is that the actual car...?????

It looks different . ..

I like the last pic ....never seen one like that ...can you send a couple more pics...

Of front & a pic of drivers side with door opened....so I get an idea of how it’s set up....

I’m interested . 

I salute you, Craigslist user. Both for paying attention, and for being the type of person who would be interested such a bizarre vehicle. I like the cut of your jib. Sorry for getting your hopes up.

It’s a damn shame you’re so far away. I’d buy it for parts at the very least, if shipping wasn’t $1k.

I’ve seen a municipal worker make the same mistake for a half a decade.

I used to live in Dallas. The HQ for Mobil has been in Dallas for a long time, even before the merger w/ Exxon. The Mobil pegasus has been adopted as a symbol for the whole city - that’s how long it’s been there. Mobil is entrenched.

Anyway, some city worker was once upon a time tasked with creating a sticker to give to holders of a non-fixed tire repair business permit. I once saw a truck with 6-7 consective years’ worth of “City of Dallas Mobil Tire Repair Permit” stickers affixed. Truly, a “change the color, increment the year, print another batch!” operation.

Related anecdote - Now I live in the Austin area. The county courthouse nearest my house also has a tax office in it, so I go there from time to time to transfer vehicle titles, etc. It’s also the location for early voting. On the outside of the door to one of the courtrooms, there is a paper sign that admonishes people to “check in with the clerk before enter the courtroom”. I corrected the sign in pen (I added “ing” to the end of “enter”) 2 YEARS ago. It’s a really crappy looking correction. IT’S STILL THERE as of a week ago.
