68 comaro

No offense but you own the car shouldn't you be able to spell it? Not much annoys me but for some reason this does.:rofl1:


CAMARO
 
Hey Thunder, I'll admit that I don't know much about Camaros but after looking at your pictures I can't imagine anyone willing to trade you even-up with a C5.
I'm just saying, you know.
 
THUNDER said:
most c-5 i see are going for 10k to 13k and the 68 is closer to 15 to 20 k, seeing that mine is all original and all stock. if it trades then it does. if not then it goes back in the garage

Most 68 Camaros Im looking on Ebay it quite a bit better condition are going from 8-12k, and light restomod from 15-20, full restomods 30k. My neighbor has an all original 67, with completely built motor just under 500hp, drag suspension and all the other goodies including custom fiberglass body panels for light weight use....all the original stuff to. Brand new paint. Had it up for sale a while ago with trailer for 10k...no one took it.

I just also saw some C5's starting as low as 5700 bucks, some with no reserves.

Don't be upset if this is bad news, but its the reality of the car world. Ebay is generally the best way to figure out pricing, cause ebay shows what people are willing to spend. Ive spent 3yrs working as a pawn broker, I use it everyday. Ive also had to accept the fact of adding up how much Ive put into my vette, and the reality of what people are willing to pay for something like mine. So I set my price right around what Ive seen off forums and Ebay. Now I just gotta get a couple things finished and hopefully off she goes.

Now trying to steal your thread, just trying to give you some insight. When pricing stuff don't always look at the big dollar values. Spelling does help sell ad's, makes people a little more confident knowing if someone can spell coherently then odds are the person is a straight shooter. I know not everyone has a dictionary built into their brain, but a few more keystrokes doesn't kill anyone.

Now, now that's not nice :NoNo:....some people just aren't good at spelling.

Chris is not a good speller I always have to check stuff for him (I was always in the spelling bees during school :D) BUT he makes up for his spelling in other places Chris is very,very intelligent when it comes to inventing, putting stuff together, creating, building etc etc and if you ever sit and talk to him you get that right away.
He will admit "I'm not the best speller but I'll go up against anybody when it comes to creativity and creating stuff from scratch especially CARS"...

So maybe Thunder cant spell all that well but I am sure he makes up for it in other places :yesnod:


We all have our weakness' and strengths :)


My weakness---I talk and state my opinion too much :rofl1: :D

You are so right about everyone having their weaknesses and strenghts.

Man, I wish I had Chris' gift. I would love to be able to visualize a finished product and then build it.
Oh well, at least I am good looking. :lmao::lmao:
 
There is no requirement on this site that someone MUST spell correctly. But it IS encouraged, for the sake of legibility for all the readers to easily understand what you are actually saying without needing an interpreter. Please note that there IS a spell check function built into this site which can help out considerably when the proper letter arrangement fails you for some words you would like to use. Lord knows I use it for nearly every post I make, and am rather proud of the number of times I have it find NO errors whatsoever.

But in any event, belittling someone publicly for a knack or ability that you have and they lack is relatively poor form or forums.

HAH! Spell check gave me a clean bill on this one!! :thumbsup:
 
pssst I use firefox and it spell checks as I write..lol I'm not a good speller either, But I can write and read hex codes and web codes flawlessly...go figure Greg is the speller of the family.
 
O wait I forgot....

I like it when people spell Camaro Camero.. because that use to be how you would get cheap camaro parts on ebay until they fixed that feature:lmao:

LOL! That's how I found some of my best deals on Gunbroker. I would search for Colt Pyton (instead of "Python"). There would be NO ONE else bidding on that gun. :hehehe:

I agree. And, while I do agree with some of the comments posted, I resisted the urge to comment myself. It is his car and he has the right to ask whatever he thinks its worth.

:iagree::iagree::iagree: :thumbsup:

I've got 7 Vettes here I wouldn't trade even up for it,and 2 of them are Crashed!!:thumbsup:
 
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." How true! Granted he has a valuable car....but only to those who want it, and the resto work that would come with it. No need for anyone to get their shorts in a wad!:thumbsup:

Generally I agree with you and I normally don't care how people spell but when you are creating a sale/trade ad it should be clear, to the point, well thought out and the name of the car should be spelled right. I mean come on, it's on the SIDE of the car!
I wouldn't deal with this guy simply for the way he carries himself on the forum and the way the ad has been written. I would expect a scammer to have this attitude, but what do I know my posts are "spam".

OP I will leave your thread for good now.:peelout 1:
 
lol your kiding right you have maid all of 2 post on this forume and calling me a scammer. go spam somewhere else. dont come in my thread and try and make me out like that. i dont talk down to people and dont expect it in return. what part of if entrested message me didnt some of you get. you can read enough to jump my ass about spelling yet you miss the main point and spam my thread, pic and my post have been removed by me.



i dont see some of you spamming other threads so dont spam mine. i did not ask for your opions nor did i want them. its simply a classic car i was gunna trade. its 90% restored all original. but its fine if this is how some of you act then i wont be back. i have maid frends here and greatfull for them but i will not sit here and be insulted...


do not post here anymore <<< can ya'll read that and its spelled right
 
Ok guys and gals, that's enough please!:mad:

Damn! so the boy can't spell for chit! I think we all got the drift.

He's trying to sell a 68 Camaro.

It's his call as to the price or trade(s) he asks, be it reasonable or otherwise.

It's up to the potential buyer or trader to determine the worth.

As with sale posts on most sites, I'd have to say that, if you don't have something positive to add, don't interfere with the sellers thread.

If you have personal and/or substantiative information (with supporting evidence/documentation) about a particular seller or item for sale, then please let the mods or admin know and we can shut it down to protect our members.:thumbsup:

This should be the end of this matter I would suspect?

OP-if you'd like to repost your ad, please feel free to do so.

If anyone has an issue with this, please send me a PM or emal.

Thanks,

G
