1970 plymouth suburban
While looking for a tow vehicle I saw this car. I'd love to buy it. He's asking $4500 OBO so if anyone wants it.... 
It's a 3/4 ton so what do you think about it as a tow vehicle for my 28' Schult? This car is awesome! Haven't seen it though.

I'm actually looking at late 80's Suburbans & newer SUV's instead of a car but I couldn't help being tempted to buy this car if it were a lot cheaper I'd buy it so good thing it's not.
Sorry for the double post. I timed out before I thought I should mention this so if anyone wants the car I just posted...go for it & let me know if you or a friend buys it.

That posting has been flagged for removal so I wonder what happened. That's not something they post if its been sold.

Short version: People on Craigslist flag everything for removal. It's become the most useless website ever. My B190 ad was flagged for removal too - it most definitely was NOT a scam. I think some people just flag everything, and I think others will flag stuff they want to buy so that others have less chance to see it.

I spoke to the owner so if anyone wants to see this car, let me know. Too bad it got flagged. He's a nice guy. I just checked the ad I posted & it's still there so maybe you're referring to another ad getting flagged.

I've had items flagged by the people who want to buy them...cuts down on the competition I guess...

Sadly, writing an ad on a 4th-Grade reading level is the only way a listing will survive more than a few hours - save any details for correspondence or inspection interviews.
Oh - and never contest a flagging in the help forums, that will just get you pilloried, dragged down by overt editorial defenses for their 'pet' system... by the supposed caretakers of the asylum! Argh!

Small Argosy motorhome. Former rolling dog groomer, however current owner swears hes got back towards original condition. Says he's just had the transmission fixed and much of its original interior is there. The price may be right..

I should point out it would be fun to put it back to original, a lot of work, but fun. I can't quite express my thoughts politely on it's current configuration.

I actually tried to get more pictures, mostly out of morbid curiousity and whoever I connected with was rude. Gather it will be a shed a bit longer. Wish I could get it cheap and work on it. Could be fun. Not sure why everyone on CL thinks that airstreams are worth so much now, and why people think they are worth more gutted with the interior thrown away. Of course we all know that just adds thousands to the mix trying to get tubs, black tanks, hardware etc.
