Fairly nice car with some minor correctness issues. I am a few miles away for the next week if anyone is interested I can make time to take a look.

Have to agree! Who ever thinks of getting into this one better check the car actually exists... looks like a scam to me.

Yeah, looks better now...

I have seen it listed in Pittsburgh craigs list also. Its a scam...

I almost feel like calling to hear the story. The area code checks out as Palm Beach area. I always get nervous when any licence plate pictures are omitted.

I was being led by a similar scam for a 190 several years ago. They gave me the address in New York, but said to call them before I booked the flight. I was ready to book the flight and they just happened to sell it that same day. Saw it for sale in another state a few months later.

Well if a couple of people flag it as prohibited it will go away...
Perhaps that's our Pagoda civic duty...

Craigslist is a famous arena to post fraudulent Pagoda's for sale.
Before I purchased my car, I was dealing with someone was trying to sell a Padoda whereas the pictures and description were taken directly from Aventura Motors in NY.
When these bogus ads appear, it makes me sick. It is 100% a scam. Stay away and save your money.

Guys' thanks I had the same experience when I bought a 1956 Corvette. Wherever there is a chance to hoodwink and scam, there will be somebody trying.
GREAT WORK
I was looking at the pictures and wondered why the intake was different than my 1970..

Yeah, that photo of the car was definitely not taken in Jupiter, Florida. We don't have trees like that down here.
Kind of scary... I imagine they've been able to scam somebody, otherwise they wouldn't keep posting in different venues.
